Footloose in Australia

Originally published in 1973.

'Once footloose, always footloose', declares Patsy Adam-Smith, who has travelled around Australia by train, by foot through the mountains, and over thousands of kilometres on every kind of road in many types of vehicles. She is also the first woman to be articled to a coastal trader in Australian waters. This book contains some of her best stories.

Moodbird People

First published in 1970.

This book recalls Patsy's years of contact with the Cape Barreners in the Bass Strait, who called themselves the Moon Bird Peoples, descendants of Tasmania Aboriginal peoples and families whose forefathers settled in the islands before Melbourne or Sydney were founded (back cover)

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers, please note that this book may contain descriptions and/or images of people who have passed away.
