Blenheim, New Zealand: Meltwater Press. Very Good. 1997. First Edition. Oversized Paperback. 0473047470 . Minor cover creases. In this delightful autobiography, Hilda Walker writes of growing up after the death of her father in the 1918 flu epidemic, of student days at Canterbury -both the fun of tournaments and the effects of the Depression- of tramping in the Australian bush and surfing at Sydney beaches. In Maadi, Cairo, she works at the social centre for the New Zealand Army, visits pyramids, drinks tea with sheiks on wistaria-covered balconies, is pursued in the desert by drug smugglers, and continues her drawing and painting. All this happens against a backdrop of swimming and tennis at the 'Club', full time motherhood, and the changes sweeping across Europe and Egypt. She holds New Zealand with its memories, friends and forests, as her ultimate home, and after the war the family came full circle and returned to New Zealand. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 307 pages .
