DESCRIPTION
Alternative TitleLife in the port city of Fremantle in the 1950sAuthorEdwards, CarlDescription"Take a little English boy and place him in the central precinct of Western Australia's most historic city. Dial up the 1950s; add a good measure of youthful exuberance; mix thoroughly and allow to simmer in West Australian sunshine. Half a century later, on a hot February day, the 'Freo boy' returns to visits old haunts. ... As he walks the streets, the 'Freo boy' looks at old buildings and remembers old stories. The result is a blend of hisory and event; a series of observations and pranks etched onto an historic backdrop by an ordinary but loving son."--Back cover.Imprint[Sunnybank Hills, Qld.] : Bookpal, c2010.Collationxii, 310 p. : ill., facsims., maps ; 21 cm.LanguageEnglishDate Published2010ISBN9.78192E+12Dewey Class994.11 EDWPublication FormatBook
