AustLit

'From Europe and its traditions, the writer of this book....[i]n Australia ... has made a reputation as woman publicist for the civil flying service, having made many trips from one part of Australia to another, and often at very short notice. It is because of her work in this direction that certain prose extracts are included in this book. For the rest, she has loved simple and gentle things, and loves Australia and all that belongs to it as though it were her own country. Born in England, she says she belongs here now.' From the Foreword by Mary Gilmore. 16.10.37.
