Paperback. Condizione: Good. Postmark Australia (1963) by Elizabeth Tribe & Derek Tribe ? Sold by Crappy Old Books Equal parts travelogue, time capsule, and love letter to the land Down Under, Postmark Australia (1963) delivers a vivid snapshot of a continent in flux. Written by Elizabeth and Derek Tribe with warmth, curiosity, and an eye for everyday wonders, this charming volume captures Australia as seen through the eyes of newcomers?observant, enthusiastic, and occasionally baffled. From dusty outback towns to bustling coastal cities, the Tribes chart a course through landscapes both physical and cultural. They explore the peculiarities of local language, customs, and kangaroo encounters with good humour and gentle insight. Whether it?s the mail routes that bind far-flung communities or the people who call the bush home, Postmark Australia is full of quirky detail and unfiltered 1960s commentary that might today raise an eyebrow?or three. Condition: Soft corners, faded spine, and smells faintly of eucalyptus and nostalgia. A perfect read for armchair travellers, Australiana collectors, or anyone who appreciates a good rummage through the literary glovebox of history.

Dust jacket is in good condition with scuffing to back and front. Interior and binding are still very good. Elizabeth and Derek Tribe came to live in Australia in 1956 and liked it here. After returning to the UK in 1961, many friends quizzed them about life in Australia. The interest shown by so many friends was matched by a general ignorance of the place and its people. Was the place really full of kangaroos and sheep? Was life really so lacking culture? Were the houses really just wooden bungalows lacking internal sanitation? Was it fair to the children to deprive them of an English schooling? They realised that information supplied by Australia House was too general for professionals. Even those who were anxious to come to Australia knew little about the country. So the authors put together a series of letters by 'Sheila and Jack', shedding light on Australia to help migrants prepare for their future, and the result is Postmark Australia.
