He is known for his adventurous and sometimes sensational novels that often explore themes of colonialism, race, and the British Empire. Born in Adelaide, South Australia, Dawe moved to England in his early twenties where he would spend most of his life. His writing style is characterized by keen observation and a dramatic narrative technique which often reflects the attitudes and values of his era. Among his notable works is 'Leathermouth' (1896), a novel that presents readers with a vivid depiction of life and social strife. Dawe's contribution to Australian literature may not be as celebrated as some of his contemporaries, but his novels offer valuable insights into popular interests and the dissemination of imperial ideology during his time.
