It was his first published book and sold well, launching his career. He followed it with a series of similar travel books.[2][3]
The Bulletin said "It supplies a pitilessly realistic picture of a human pest; one who is restless, inquisitive, in love with life, interested in everything, the bane of all in authority; a dry humorist, as senselessly malignant as a child, as quick-thinking as a good criminal defender, as combative and courageous as a bull-ant."[4]
Clune later had a show on ABC radio in 1939 called Try Anything Once.[5]
