Island life : the story of Clarke Island, 1984-1990 / Dion Perry.

Clarke Island is a windswept place in Eastern Bass Strait. It had no residents and could only be accessed by light plane or boat when weather permitted. Having never seen the place, Dion and his family move there in March of 1984. They arrived with few provisions and few possessions to an old farm house in a poor state of repair. To survive they had to learn to live in harmony with the island by forging a semi self-sufficient life style in which they not only grew a garden and kept milking goats, but learned to live off the bounty of the land and sea.
