N1  - "The true story of a woman of substance in the front line of war, immigration and public service"--Cover; Includes bibliographical references (p. 173)
N2  - Unsatisfied with the prospect of serving a husband and serving up dinner, Helen Witt opted for life on the high seas. One of the first to serve with Voluntary Aid Detachment during the second world war, Helen witnessed life as an independent woman when many were questioning whether women belonged out of he house. After the war, Helen was instrumental in traveling to distant lands as a Welfare Officer with Australian Immigration, helping to bring new Australians to the lucky country from all over the world; Great Granny B is the touching and true story of Helen's love, adventure, humanity and her role in Australian history. Recaptured through conversations and mail from Helen's travels abroad, the story crosses to Europe, Asia and Africa in the heady and war-torn days of the 1940's and the changing social values of the 1950's
