Angelo Notaras. His involvement with the 2009 publication of Life in Australia

The initial impetus arose out of collecting research material for the web-site www.kythera-family.net. It became very obvious to James Prineas, Angelo Notaras and George C Poulos, Administrators of the website that Life in Australia, (1916), was a seminal and important book in Greek-Australian history.

Angelo Notaras states in his article in the 2009 Epilogue to the book - My Family's...Life in Australia, pp. 312-313, that around 1943, when he was about 10 years old, his father showed him a family copy of the book. From that time he harboured a desire to see the book re-published.

"60 years after first being introduced to Life in Australia, and 93 years after publication, I am now able to enjoy reading this historic, iconic publication in English. It was Life in Australia which inspired me later in life to devote my energies to preserving our Kytherian culture and heritage."
