Her family moved around the Far East before being interned during World War Two then repatriated in exchange for Japanese prisoners and transported to England where the war was still raging.

Now aged in her 70s, Gillian lives in Australia where her cattle property is again under threat to make way for a huge dam that the Government intends to build.ImprintBlack Mountain, Qld. : Catbird Media, c2008.Collation221 p. : ill., ports. ; 23 cm.FormatBook
