Solid Bluestone Foundations
Description
Alles über E-Books | Antworten auf Fragen rund um E-Books, Kopierschutz und Dateiformate finden Sie in unserem Info- & Hilfebereich.
The divisions between her Catholic and Protestant grandparents, and the contrast between the dedicated civil servants on one side of the family and the energetic entrepreneurs on the other, are depicted with the sharp-eyed acuity of youth.
Kathleen's mediocre schooling, the awakening of her feminist consciousness, her discovery at the University of Melbourne of her true vocation as a historian and her unhappy experiences at Oxford are major themes of her memoir.
The book is greatly enhanced by Susan Davies' Introduction, family tree and other materials, offering valuable new insights and information for historians, those interested in women's lives, and scholars of Australian autobiography.
First-time readers, as well as those already familiar with Solid Bluestone Foundations, will welcome this elegant new edition of Kathleen Fitzpatrick's charming recollection of an Australian childhood.
