'Hear The Train Blow'
In this book, Pasty Adam-Smith, one of Australia's best-loved and most successful authors, tells of her experiences growing up in the bush during the Great Depression. The book is a celebration of the ordinary people of Australia and of a life that no longer exists. Fettlers travel to work by car and use labour-saving machines where once Patsy's father and his mates toiled with their 28-pound hammers. Not one station where her mother was station-mistress still stands.

'Goodbye Girlie'
A sequel to 'Hear The Train Blow', this book sees the young Patsy Adam-Smith boarding a train to head off to the Second World War as a nurse. It tells how she survived the war, went on to become the first woman to be granted signed articles in Australian waters, and became one of Australia's most popular writers.

'There Was A Ship'
This fascinating book is a classic account of life on the small boats that once sailed the dangerous waters of Bass Strait.
