Description

A Place Like Home. Growing up in a School of Industry 1915-1922 by Laura Todd and edited by Amanda Midlam. In 1915, with their father at the Great War and their young mother too ill to raise a family alone, the three Lavarni sisters were placed in the School of Industry at Petersham in Sydney. It was seven years before their father was able to reclaim his daughters. Decades later Laura Todd, the youngest daughter (known as Belle and three years old in 1915), wrote down the story of the harsh and deprived life she and her sisters had suffered inside the Home. This book has light to medium general wear but remains tight and bright.
