"There was a big difference between the
bush-fire country of Western Australia and the Central
Highlands of Tasmania. Our family settled briefly at
Tarraleah with its bleak conditions and isolation.
We saw many men arriving as migrant
workers on two-year contracts. More than fifty years later
I was curious to know what had happened to them.
Echoes on
the Mountain documents ten stories – men from
Lithuania, Italy, Berlin, Czechoslovakia, Poland and twin
girls from England"
