Summary
The true story of an unlikely Australian icon. Almost every day for 35 years, Arthur Stace spent hours writing a single word â Eternity â on and around the streets of Sydney. Sometimes his mission took him much further afield, to country New South Wales and even to Melbourne. Staceâ s identity was a mystery for more than two decades. Then, after his â unmaskingâ in 1956, he became a reluctant folk hero. BY the time he died, in 1967, his was a household name and the word Eternity was ingrained in the soul of Sydney. It still is. In this long-awaited biography, the full story of Arthur Staceâ s life is told for the first time in vivid and often surprising detail. Drawing upon many original sources, some never before made public, this book will engross Christians and non-believers alike â anyone who loves a great Australian story
