{"product_id":"the-changing-times-ian-braybrook-9780994437037","title":"The Changing Times","description":"\u003cp\u003eIan Braybrook was a radio broadcaster in Central Victoria for many years. His childhood and early teen years are far removed from the \"glamour\" of that job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIan's family was desperately poor and the early death of his father had a far-reaching effect on his life. By the age of thirteen, when he got his fi rst job, he had lived in twenty homes and changed schools ten times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis story moves from Daylesford, Trentham and Blackwood districts in the Central Highlands to East Gippsland, South Gippsland, the Western District and the Riverina of NSW. His many jobs included a telegram boy, farm hand, \u003cbr\u003e builders and general labourer, storeman, shift worker, fruit picker, shearing shed wool presser and truck driver. Along the way he was homeless, suffered two potentially fatal illnesses, experienced violent abuse and suffered a sexual assault. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten originally for family, the story proved to be of far wider interest. The adventures and misadventures crammed into the first eighteen years of Ian's life provide an important record of the way life was for some in the depression and post-depression era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ian Braybrook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 099443703X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780994437037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Marilyn Bennet Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Ian Braybrook","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47758052622591,"sku":"9780994437037","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8deb7566-920d-492e-89e8-ca16c3e29cd0.jpg?v=1765510981","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-changing-times-ian-braybrook-9780994437037","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
