Description
By turns inspiring and moving, this is the remarkable true story of one woman's struggle and triumph over adversity."Pamela" is the remarkable memoir of one of Australia's most inspiring and pioneering women - an amazing tale of success and failure, artistic and charitable achievement, heartache and betrayal, and of determination and survival.
From their humble immigrant origins, through their insatiable ambition and greed the Myer's became one of the richest and most powerful families in Australia. Sent out into the world during the 1950's, Pamela Myer met with the world's greatest courtiers, dined with Royalty, and became a shining example of social and political grace, but despite all this, she was still ostracized for being young, Australian, and a woman.
It was this treatment, alongside the tragic loss of her eldest son that spurred her on to devote her life to promoting Australian culture and art. ISBN:9781740664998
