WEST AUSTRALIANA
The author recounts mischievous misadventures as a young boy. Separated from his parents by a domestic dispute, he was placed in a Salvation Army’s boys’ home in the working class suburb of Shenton Park, in Perth, WA. Facing challenges, Stephen developed a relationship with the Rosalie boys and with the land, which was to sustain him throughout a productive life. The author has certainly captured the ‘living history’ of Shenton Park in the mid 20th century. Amply illustrated with photographs. A really interesting and inspiring book about life in the Western Suburbs Perth through the last 70 years.” pp. 279 illusts #0118/0419/1119/1020/131222/040523 First Edition.
