I am a Melbourne author drawn to the historical figures who link Australia and China.
My first book, The Geelong Doctor, tells the story of George Ernest Morrison, a Geelong-born surgeon who walked across southwest China in 1894 and went on to become The Times of London’s correspondent in Beijing and a confidant of China’s first president, Yuan Shikai.
I also write a bilingual blog (English/中文) on history, language, travel, and the spaces between.
