Becke, an Australian Pacific trader and writer, made significant contributions to literature in the late 19th century. After returning to Sydney in 1892, he began publishing stories in The Bulletin, with his first appearing in 1893. His works, including the 1894 collection "By Reef and Palm" and the 1895 novelette "His Native Wife," reflect his experiences and insights from the Pacific region. He continued to explore themes of life and culture in his subsequent collection, "The Ebbing of the Tide," published in 1896.
