"As Australia's first lady Governor-General, Quentin Bryce handwrote greater than fifty letters each one week. She wrote to these she had met and attached with as her function took her from palaces to outback colleges, from battle zones to memorials, from intimate audiences to lavish ceremonies. She got much more letters from each nook of the rustic. beneficiant, witty and continuously heartfelt, her letter-writing abilities have been honed at boarding college, from the place she could write to her mom and dad each Sunday.
Dear Quentin is a wealthy number of the letters the Governor-General wrote and obtained in the course of her six-year time period to top ministers Rudd and Gillard, VC Mark Donaldson, neighbors Anne Summers and Wendy McCarthy, Indigenous elders, struggle vets, lady publications, grandchildren, in addition to the proud proprietor of a calf referred to as Quentin.
