At long last, the story of how a pioneering family settled in Australia has come into print. From Britain in the late 1700s, with travels from India and to the United States and Mexico, running through in Australia until mid-1914, and branching out up to the 1960s, Clyde Whittakers compiled much more than just a family history. Central to the early narrative is how an Englishwoman of great character, Martha Louisa Moore, rescued her orphaned nieces and brought them from Edinburgh to Sydney. She later started Australia's first school for young ladies, which she ran in Sydney for twenty years. This book includes writings from Mary Howitt Walker, Reg.W.E. Wilmot, Dora Campbell, Harry H. Peck and Malcolm Ellis. There are also three pieces by the famous Australian author Mary Grant Bruce, one of which is her best work, 'Port After Stormie Seas'. Here you can find the farming properties, and lots of the characters, on which she based the 'Billabong' books and so many of her other yarns.
