Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has signed inside page.

In this gem from the outback, Reginal Birch remembers his childhood growing up in the remote East Kimberley town of Wyndham.

Brilliantly captured are the many bittersweet experiences of his family, such as fleeing the Forrest River Mission in a 1926 wooden-spoked Pontiac to escape the threat of WWII Japanese invasion and travelling the vast Kimberley landscape in search of work and a place to settle.

Back in Wyndham, against a backdrop of yarns spun by town and station legends still clinging to their colonial roots, Reginal Birch brings to life the challenges faced by an Aboriginal family as they carve their place in an outback society.

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