Description

These papers give fascinating insight into the lives of creative Australians. Among these are the stories of Henry Lawsonâ≢s sporadic imprisonment and alcoholism, and the shock discovery that Patrick White had not destroyed his papers, despite his insistence to the contrary. It is generously and beautifully illustrated with ephemera.
