Produktbeschreibung

In the 19th century Australia went from struggling penal colony to a thriving community with a bright future.

George Matcham Pitt's life spanned the greater part of this century. A larger than life character and a master of rhetoric, fond of quoting from classic poets, opinionated and generous to a fault, GM, as he was known, went from humble farmer to landowner, auctioneer and the founder of one of Australia's first and best-known stock and station agents Pitt, Son & Badgery.

This remarkable story is told by his great great granddaughter.

Autorenporträt

Patsy Trench was born in England to an Australian mother and Anglo-Irish father. She began her working life as an actress, in the UK and in Australia, where highlights were performing alongside local legends Chips Rafferty and Skippy the Bush Kangaroo (not at the same time). She has been a scriptwriter, script editor, playscout and lyricist, and co-founder of The Children's Musical Theatre of London, creating devised musicals shows with primary school-aged children. She is the mother of two adult children and lives in London with a Freedom Pass. When not writing books she organises theatre tours and teaches theatre part-time at Kingston University to visiting students from overseas. Her hobbies are rag-rugging and fossicking for ancient artefacts on the Thames foreshore.
