Description from source |
Autobiography that covers the long period from the writer's birth (1881) to the time of writing (1953). The text favors some narrative threads: childhood memories; the account of an early period of emigration to Australia and of the work in the gold and copper mines; the description of a second and definitive emigration to the United States of America (Solvay, East Coast, Seattle); memories of two trips to different American states and a return trip to Price's country (1937); the biography of other emigrants from the country and the valley met in Australia and America.
