Boorowa, my love : how a town sought justice for three people in peril / by Karen J. Smith

"This historical book is written in the first person by the fictional Frances Mary Sheehan, a women's journalist with The Burrowa News, a newspaper serving Boorowa and surrounding townships. Frances is a principled person who sees the world in black and white, but three criminal cases that took place between 1942-1950 - a murder, an alleged attempted murder and a manslaughter case -profoundly change her. In all three cases, the accused were acquitted. But how? Why? This book explores the cases and highlights the actions of those who fought for justice on behalf of the accused, including local solicitor, Vincent Patrick Dwyer. It also pays homage to the men and women of Boorowa and district who served during WWII"--Back cover.
