Geoffrey Dutton

Geoffrey 'Geppie' Piers Henry Dutton AO (2 August 1922 – 17 September 1998) was an Australian author and historian.

[2] Dutton enjoyed spotlighting in his teens, modifying a Morris van used at Anlaby to collect mail to be used to track rabbits and foxes.

Geoffrey enlisted into the Royal Australian Air Force at Keswick, South Australia, on 29 August 1940.

He made the decision to join up on his eighteen birthday, sharing the news with his mother over lunch at the Covent Garden Cafe, Adelaide.

In 1965, together with Max Harris and Brian Stonier, he co-founded the Australian paperback publishing company Sun Books.
