                           Laurie Lovett, Toughness was a Help

Laurie Lovett tells of an eventful life. Boyhood pranks and struggles in northern Tasmania give way to the grim reality of war service in Greece and Crete, followed by a long spell as POW in Germany and Poland. In post-War Launceston, the story shifts to family, football and politics. With much humour and vivid detail, this book shows a world in which nothing came easily, but in which daring and hard work had rich rewards. Toughness was a help is a classic account of an Australian life.
