  • After telling his own life story in the Fall of the Dice, Bill Marks draws upon the same rich well of experience and an astonishingly keen memory to paint vivid word pictures of life between the wars in South Fremantle and Hamilton Hill, dubbed Sillytown by its early residents. Horse trainers, urgers, con-men and no-hopers rub shoulders with housewives, workers and honest battlers in this collection; following in the great Australian tradition of the master storyteller. 153 p. : ill., map ; 21 cm. 140415/0916R / 171021
