Product Description
This is the untold story of an Australian peace legend. Spirited and strong-willed, Margaret Holmes was shaped by some of the twentieth century's most defining moments in war and peace.Born into a wealthy, professional family in leafy Wahroonga, Margaret discovered pacifism at Sydney University, married a doctor and had six children. She was already being watched by ASIO when, in 1960, she formed the NSW branch of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom.
