True North: A Memoir
by By Conway, Jill Ker and Walther, Luann (EDT)
Category: Biography & Autobiography , Personal Memoirs

Conway's The Road from Coorain presents a vivid memoir of coming of age in Australia. In 1960, however, she had reached the limits of that provincial--and irredeemably sexist--society and set off for America. True North--the testament of an extraordinary woman living in an extraordinary time--te lls the profound story of the challenges that confronted Conway, as she sought to establish her public self.
