WEST AUSTRALIANA Australian Flora
Georgiana Molloy arrived as a young bride from England in 1829. She thrived in the pioneer settlement of Augusta, Western Australia, and her ground-breaking work in the study and identification of the region’s unique flora is an enduring testament to her skill and resilience. She never ceased to find enjoyment and satisfaction in her life despite the almost overwhelming trials and hardships of her circumstances. An enduring classic that continues to be in demand with readers since its first publication in 1955, Georgiana Molloy is a vivid and fascinating portrait of a remarkable woman. pp. 284 illusts (Some signs of wear, name on fep, scratch to back cover.) #0319R/0819/1020/291122/230622/260224
