Shirtsleeves to Shirtsleeves in Two Generations

As well as telling the Vauxhall 30/98 story, it occurred to me that this book should encapsulate the story of transport from horses through cars, powered aircraft and gliders for the two generations of our family.

The early chapters of this book deal with the first generation’s properties spread across New South Wales and Queensland and the story of our family’s Vauxhall 30/98 OE221, while the last two chapters are about the second generation who developed Burra (later Burra Station), at Tumbarumba, one of JJ Leahy’s many properties.
