Printed book. Hardback. 248 pages. Citation: Hardy, Frank, London, T. Werner Laurie, 1963. BDMHS Location: AR/SU62/SafefictionThe writer and novelist Frank Hardy spent most of his childhood and early adulthood in Bacchus Marsh. This collection of short stories is inspired by his early years in the town of Bacchus Marsh in the 1930s. The collection contains 13 stories. Many of the these stories depict the poverty and struggles of working class people during the great economic depression of the 1930s. The setting is fictionalized as 'Benson's Valley' but to anyone familiar with the town Bacchus Marsh this location is clearly the setting for these stories and some of the characters are based upon Bacchus Marsh people Hardy knew at the time.frank hardy 1917-1994, bacchus marsh writers
