Join Petrarch's Bookshop at St Lukes Launceston as we launch Alice and Daniel Stanfield: A First Fleet Family's Impact on Australia by Maureen Bennett in-conversation with Jane Bennett.
Many Australians have expressed pride in their descent from Daniel and Alice Stanfield. Both were First Fleet travellers who stepped ashore at Sydney Cove on 28 January 1788.
Daniel and Alice were married in Australia in 1791 and made their home on Norfolk Island, later moving to Van Diemen's Land.
This book gives a glimpse into the life they led, and the descendants that followed.
This event is part of Tas Reads Week.
Book sales available at the event.
Ticket includes a drink on arrival.
