AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'For most of her married life, Ipswich writer and artist Helen Haenke lived in ‘Rockton’ – the historic Ipswich home of her husband’s family. It was indeed surrounded by a beautiful garden which often provided inspiration for her creative talents. This often-quoted line from Prophets and honour, one of her two published volumes of poetry, in some symbolic way encapsulates the life of this insufficiently recognised woman.' (Introduction)

    'In its 90th year the Fryer Library continues to grow as a bountiful resource. From the time of the first volumes on Australian literature collected by Dr Frederick Robinson in memory of John Denis Fryer, the Library’s development has been a labour of love. Over the years, this endeavour has been generously aided by loyal supporters, particularly the wonderful Friends of Fryer who have defended, built and promoted the collection’s value.' (Introduction, Simon Farley : Fryer Librarian)
