J. Larcombe in ''The Worker'' considered the poem "Boake's masterpiece...In it the young poet expressed his detestation of the cruel, selfish squatters, their inhuman conduct, and the tragedy for which they were responsible."〔("Barcroft Boake: Australian Labor Poet And Staunch Unionist" by J. Larcombe, ''The Worker'', 29 March 1943, p3 )〕 ''The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature'' states "In the poem Boake uses the contemptuous name 'Moneygrub' to denote the typical wealthy absentee landlord who lives in city luxury provided for him by the ordinary men and women of the outback..."〔''The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature'', 2nd edition, p808〕 ''The Cambridge History of Australian Literature'' described the poem "as by far the bleakest poetic vision" of the Australian landscape as it evokes "a haunted frontier."〔''The Cambridge History of Australian Literature'', 2009, p203〕
