About Heber Hedley Booth
- Heber Hedley Booth (2 June 1864 – 9 August 1936) was a Queensland-based Australian poet who wrote under the nom de plume Opal, known principally for his inaugural anthology Opalodes (1909).
- His poems made much reference to the locations of northern Australia, although several involved political comment of actions at the time.
- Booth's writings covered the early Federation of Australia from a Queensland perspective, possibly influenced by the earlier 1890s Central Queensland Territorial Separation League and the ongoing North Queensland separation movements.
