About this ebook
This memoir recounts the humour and tragedy in the lives of the people who lived in one small neighbourhood of Broken Hill, an isolated mining community in Far Western New South Wales during the nineteen forties and fifties, as seen through the eyes of a child in a workiig-class family, it tells of a unique childhood, a wonderland, an amazing place where inventiveness more than compensated for the lack of material possessions. There is a procession of characters, all with stories of their own, sometimes poignant, often amusing, as we travel with the writer from earliest memories until the day she leaves chilhood behind to start her working life.
