Smith, Loretta (Australian author)2019
Large Print
From the end of the Great War and into the 1920s, Alice Anderson was considered nothing less than a national treasure. She excelled as a motoring entrepreneur and inventor. Alice was the first woman in Australia to successfully pull off an almost impossible feat: without family or husband to back her financially, she built a garage to her own specifications and established the country's first motor service run entirely by women.
