The Road from Coorain by Jill Ker Conway (1990-08-11)

Product Description

Age 11, Conway ( Women Reformers and American Culture ) left the strenuous life on her family's sheep cultivate in the Australian outback for school in war-time Sydney, loaded by a candidly reliant, as of late widowed mother. A vivacious interest and entering acumen light up this curiously target record of the creator's advance from a single adolescence - the most engaging piece of the story - to open accomplishment as leader of Smith College and now teacher at MIT. Talented with a capacity to adjust to an extensive variety of societies and individuals and notwithstanding imbued Australian partiality against intelligent people, Conway gave herself to the investigation of history and writing, impelled on by incredible British-style tutoring. Her further enterprises could without much of a stretch make a compensating second volume.
