Memoirs of a Queensland childhood.
Joan Colebrook was born and brought up in the virgin tablelands of northern Australia, where the rainforests surrounded her family's rough-hewn house. This discerning and lyrical memoir tells of a country that was rich in beauty and contradictions: Aboriginal gunyahs and afternoon tea; monsoons and Victrola dances; bush missionaries and Anglican girls' schools.
A House of Trees takes us from Joan Colbrook's childhood in Queensland to the moment when, in 1937, she left Australia.
