ION IDRIESS: The Last Interview -Tim Bowden
This book is the last interview with Ion Idriess, prompted by the the ABC Radio’s Tim Bowden, for a possible ABC Radio program that did not eventuate. Within this book Idriess talks of his early years in Broken Hill, he tells of his earliest writing for the Bulletin, on living and photographing Aboriginal tribes in the Kimberleys and Cape York; on the writing of his books like Madman’s Island and Drums of Mer; his life with the pearlers of Broome and Thursday Island; on the joys of prospecting, living in the Wild, on Lasseter and his diary. Full of colourful characters and true stories, Ion Idriess allows us into his unbridled enthusiasm for Australian and Aboriginal history.
