Secondhand. Fair condition. Book has water staining on most pages. Pages are all separated. Foxing of foredges. Dust jacket has significant tearing to top edge.
Lady Broome was a well-known writer in her time and her letters to her son Guy in England are full of everyday life as a Governor's wife in the early days of Western Australia.
She is observant and her lively descriptions of her extensive tours with her husband Frederick Broome through Western Australia are of interest to the historian. Alexandra Hasluck in her introduction sets the period with additional information about Lady Broome's life and times and about the politics of Western Australia during her husband's term of office (1883 - 1889).
