  1. Hi Mark, l really want to read this book because my great grandmother died there in 1910 so could you investigate the possibility of getting the book “Troubled Asylum” reprinted? lt would be a very popular read for all of the family historians. Regards, Frances

    1. This book is a gathering of historical articles from reports, royal commissions, news reports and information from The History of Lachlan Park Hospital. It’s a good reference book, but not a great reading book.

      Cheers
      Mark
