Jacqueline Templeton

Jackie Templeton studied and taught in the Department of History at the University of Melbourne for some fifty years, before retiring as a Senior Fellow in 1999.

From the Mountains to the Bush, the product of her magnificent obsession with Italy and Italian migrants in Australia, is based upon hundreds of letters she collected during her many visits to the Valtellina in northern Italy during the 1990s.

This book was just completed before her sudden passing in 2000.
