A collection of reminiscences about people's fathers. It's easy to read and you can pick up and read these self contained biographies as you like.

A collection of memoirs that express lessons learned about fathers and how their behaviours/ actions shaped their children's lives.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This book was incredibly well-written and in a way that allows the reader to revisit the book easily in the future if they want to read a passage again. I really liked the fact that you could pick up and read here and there as you wanted, which made it a quick read.

This is easy to read and it has the added benefit of being able to read entries separately and come back to at a later date. Very thought provoking.
It extremely interesting to read what others remember and what may not seem important at the time can have a big impact.
This is a book that can easily be revisited.
Thank you to Netgalley and publisher Bonnier Publishing Australia for the opportunity to read and review this book.
Highly recommended.

The book is a collection of different well known Australians sharing their personal insightful stories with the author, telling how their fathers shaped their lives. Whether their fathers were around a lot or not so much, it seemed they were all so very affected by these men...they couldn't help but be. Includes some very moving memories. Not an overly long read but leaves you thinking. An ARC was given to me by NetGalley and the publisher for review.
