Tea-tree Passage

The Australian Senior - February 2002 - Many people judge a book by how hard it is to put down. By these standards, Tea-tree Passage is a wonderful book. A powerful and compelling story by Australian author Robyn Lee Burrows...Tea-tree Passage is a wonderful and moving story of a family’s will to survive and overcome all life puts before them. Robyn Lee Burrows' love of research and ‘all things old’ is evident in her passionate prose in Tea-tree Passage...Her writing is not only entertaining but imparts an incredible wealth of information about Australia. Tea-tree Passage leaves the reader with an admiration for people living through such troubled times.

Gold Coast Bulletin (Michael Jacobson) Dec 1, 2001 - ... a history of massive social, sexual and economic change in Auatralia and one which, until now, has rarely been fully told...and Burrows weaves her fiction  deeply withing the facts...Still, for as much as Robyn Lee Burrows is determined to broaden our knowledge of ourselves she never loses sight of her function as Australian storyteller and entertainer.
