The Fifth Sparrow: An Autobiography by M L Skinner with a Foreword by Mary Durack

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Wear to corners and edges, particularly at spine tail. Dust jacket has light creasing to edges. Tiny tear to the top edge of the back cover and inside the front book flap. Interior and binding are still very good.

Mollie Skinner (1876-1955) tells of her brave and unusual life as a nurse who yearned to be a writer. She recalls her meeting with D H Lawrence in 1922 and their collaboration on the novel The Boy in the Bush. (book flap)
