Biographie de l'auteur

George Lilly was born in Margaret River, Western Australia, but was raised in the neighbouring coastal town of Augusta. At that time (1960's), it was even more of a remote backwater than it is today, bordered on one side by the Blackwood River, on another by the Indian and Southern Oceans, and surrounded by deep tracts of wild bushland. It was a child's paradise, a fact he didn't fully appreciate until he was much older. From an early age he developed an affinity for all things Australian, as most red-blooded Aussie boys do, but he acquired a special affection for the triad of nature that surrounded him - the river, the sea and the bush. At the age of eleven his father, whom he absolutely idolised, died suddenly, and his whole world was turned upside down. His family moved further inland to Manjimup, another country town, where he found more bush and bigger trees, this time the majestic karri forests. Here he finished his secondary education and met the love of his life, his wife Vicki. Both he and Vicki became teachers and spent many years working at various high schools around rural Western Australia (more bush and wild animals). Most recently he was Head of Social Science at Frederick Irwin Anglican School in Mandurah, about an hour's drive south of Perth, the state's capital. Besides the bushland, his other great loves are his horses (he and Vicki have seven - at last count), and history, which he teaches with a passion.
