Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Minor wear to book corners. Foxing to foredges.

Kath Mallett's historical research and memoirs, much of which was literally hand-written on the back of jam tin labels are recorded here as a tribute to Marble Bar, the little town she loved.

She was born on Limestone Springs Station, Marble Bar, on 21 June 1909. Her father, Thomas Mallett, had joined the original Pilbara goldrush in the late 1880s and was operating as a teamster from Cossack to the isolated inland fields at the time of the Marble Bar find in May 1891.

Her father soon made this small outback town his home, and in 1900 consolidated his scattered house holdings and established the Limestone Springs property.

The author received her education at a convent boarding school and later a city business college before returning to the family property. After her marriage to Arthur Pozzi in 1941, the nearby town of Marble Bar remained her home for over twenty years.
