To Find the Girl from Perth,
by David Chadwick

an illustrated novel  - with songs - set in Western Australia

Speir Publishing - 11/08

ISBN 978-0-9801725-5-3


American Zen failure Chadwick this time is in a Western Australian caper. He went there, he writes in the introduction, “on a whim to visit a dear chum, meet her family, friends, and homeland, curious to explore, anticipating only the warmth of new acquaintance, the excitement of unknown flora and fauna, the joy of walking about. There was that, but then there was the unexpected as events propelled me with brazen mates into a bizarre treasure hunt for another lass, one in danger of the grave.”  Join Chadwick and his cast of curious characters in their search To Find the Girl from Perth.

It's also an e-book that can be bought and downloaded from various sites (here's one) and a Kindle book at Amazon

or Read the book here for free or for a donation if you choose. It seems the Kindle book doesn't have the illustrations - that must be fixed. Apparently is was hard to do.
