Item description from seller

Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly right front cover corners, now protected with book tape. Some minot marks on foredges. Interior and binding are still very good. Dame Mary Durack AC DBE, born into a pioneering family, has long been recognised as one of Australia's great literary figures. Inseparable Elements: Dame Mary Durack by Patsy Millett is a daughter's perspective of her mother's life. Dame Mary Durack Miller was born into a pastoral legacy that made her name famous even before she became one of Australia's most popular literary doyennes of the 20th century. Best known for her history of the Durack family, Kings in Grass Castles, Dame Mary was married to aviation pioneer Horrie Miller and was a sibling to the artist Elizabeth Durack. Among the multifarious threads woven into her life, she became a friend and confidant to many celebrated writers, actors, and artists. Drawing on a substantial accumulation of first-hand sources, principally her mother's diaries and correspondence, Patsy Millett's book is about a well-known family whose prospects were blighted. Written from the unique perspective of someone born into the wash-up of the Durack dynasty, Patsy says her account will be controversial, as the reality behind the generally accepted facts has never been told. Millet's story is unflinching. Her sharp, insightful prose and acerbic wit create an intimate portrait of an extraordinary writer whose family life was filled with triumph and tragedy.
