AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'My grandparents came variously from Glasgow, Liverpool and the Isle of Man and arrived in Australia in the 1870s. I was born at Petersham in Sydney on 13 August 1905. At school I took a less than serious interest in lessons and had to go to night school when I left, an ironic beginning to my later life in a world of books, but my home life was a happy one about which I have no regrets.' (Introduction)
