The Ongoing Life & Times of The Almost Famous Phyllis Fisher - Paperback

by Rainey Leigh Seraphine (Author)

Phyllis Fisher is one of the earlier settlers to the Comboyne Plateau, part of the Port Macquarie hinterland in New South Wales, Australia. She is a well known and much-loved character of the Plateau and after retiring from a life of dairy farming, continued her dedication in creating a paradisical two-acre garden, complete with handmade waterfall, stonework and tennis court, home to her beloved peacocks and guinea fowl. Her garden became well-known as a tourist destination and was visited by people worldwide. She narrates an era of lifestyle, based on hardship and survival and yet her vivid and humorous descriptions are not made in terms of hardship. I am grateful to be able to share her legacy for her descendants.
