Отрывок из книги
I was born on 31st August 1945 straight after World War II ended so I’m almost too old to call myself a Baby Boomer because most Boomers were born in 1946 after their fathers came back from fighting overseas.
My father, a carpenter was sent to Darwin to build hospitals when the Japanese invaded Australia. As a child I heard many horrifying stories about the Great World Depression and both the first and second world wars.

“Remember that young sixteen year old girl who thought she wasn’t good enough to apply for the computer department. Look at you today with businesses in three states and over 100 permanent staff, congratulations.” he said proudly like a father praising his own child.
