About This Item
Melbourne, Carlton South: Bridin Books, 2014. 2nd ed.. Paperback octavo, very good condition, colour photos, few black & white & sepia (brown-tinted) photos, minimal creasing & dents front cover, pages lightly toned, minor edgewear, autograph (author's written dedication title page). 250 pp. Regina Lane tells the story of a 150-year-old church at the top of a hill in south-west Victoria which was built and paid for by the children of Irish potato-famine survivors. St Brigid's is a symbol of faith and hope in an ancient land, by a cold, wild sea. A unique story of a small Australian rural community who, in the spirit of their Irish rebel ancestors, stood up for what they believed in when, in 2009, the Catholic Church put the church up for sale. The author, of Irish heritage, has put together a lyrical narrative of song and story.
