Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Ex library copy with external stickers removed. Has protective plastic covering. General edgewear. Small bend to bottom front cover. Some minor marks on book foredges. Book has been cleaned and binding is very good.

This biography is based entirely on the spoken word of Ruby Paul, a remarkable woman who lived her entire life in Tasmania's isolated west and north-west regions.

The nearly thirty hours of tape-recorded sessions with Ruby, augmented by interviews with her daughters, deliver the story of the lives of Ruby and her family, primarily during the period of 1893 to the 1950s.
