Opis

The three stories in this tiny volume are about the surprises one comes across in explorations of the lives and careers of family ancestors. Each story has a unique setting but all emanate from activities of free settlers who migrated from London to Australia in the middle of the nineteenth century. The stories are all true and revolve around specific events accruing to writers, teachers, and high society matrons. Each story reveals inputs to the emerging society of Australia as it transformed itself from its birthright as a penal colony to a civilized nation. The tales are examples of little 'aha's that literally brought tears to the author's eyes in the process of discovery.
