Granny's Stories
In 1954 the author, aged 18, spent a year as an “au pair” in a French chateau. From there she went to East Berlin at the height of the Cold War to work for two years as a translator. During these two years she travelled to Moscow and across Siberia and Mongolia to China. In 1958 she spent seven months in South Sudan and from there she travelled to Aswan in Upper Egypt by paddle steamer on the Nile. In Aswan she was arrested, locked up for a few days and returned to Khartoum, Sudan. In 1959 she embarked on a four year course at a Scottish University. There was further travel in East Africa in the 1960s. In later life she spent four years in Tanzania, Bulgaria and Poland. The final chapter tells us something about her childhood during World War II.

Master of Marketing Measurement
This collection of papers focusing on the contributions of Margaret Henderson Blair, a pioneer in advertising and marketing practice and a champion of high quality, managerially relevant marketing research, provides insights into effective advertising. It captures five decades of Blair’s thoughts about the critical roles of the message in advertising, the necessity of reliable and valid measurement of advertising effects, and the centrality of persuasion as an outcome of advertising. Her thoughts are backed up by careful and readable research. Introductory chapters and editors’ comments prior to each chapter provide context to the collection as a whole and Blair’s individual presentations and papers are the heart of the book. It will appeal to advertising and marketing professionals who are seeking specific guidance for planning advertising and justifying expenditures, as well as marketing academics and scholars interested in the history of advertising.

Yours Sincerely, Tom
I watched with interest and admiration the way in which Margaret Henderson completed her first book. She followed every clue to a satisfactory conclusion and tied up every loose end to produce a remarkable tribute to her parents and an important social history of life in Australia and New Guinea in the pre-World War II years.This book is not a sequel to Yours sincerely, Tom - A lost Child of the Empire, but a consequence. It is not a biography. It is not written sequentially. It is a collection of related events and people that can be read in any order. It summarises the events that were a direct consequence of the publication of the first book. It introduces some of the people that she met as a result of that book and elaborates some of the material in the first book.The period in PNG when the War came remains a mystery. What really happened to all those people? This book is not the final word on the matters discussed. Much remains undiscovered. Some will remain a matter of conjecture for ever.Scott Henderson AM.Emeritus Professor.
