Author Visit – Patsy Kemp
October 31, 2023, 10:30 am - 11:30 am
Come and join us at the Inverell Shire Public Library for an Author visit with Patsy Kemp.
Patsy Kemp is the author of the “The Drover’s Daughter” and “The Drover’s Daughter Rides Again”.
Patsy will be visiting Inverell to talk about her childhood in a droving family and to talk about her books.
‘The Drovers Daughter Rides Again’ Patsy’s story is full of warmth, honesty and humour of life in the Australian Outback with the boss drover, along with his wife, seven kids, dogs horses and workmen, travelling in the wide open spaces in the “Long Paddock” in New South Wales and Queensland.
Patsy shares stories of bathing in a trough while stock were watering, catching yabbies out of a boredrain for dinner, her brother running down a sheep for a “killer” and running low on food while surrounded by flood water. Life was never dull.
Light refreshments will be provided.
Booking are appreciated, please phone the Inverell Library on 02 6728 8131.
