    The Potato Factory – Bryce Courtenay – First edition 1995

    A very nice first edition published by Heinemann, Melbourne in 1995 an Australian first edition. Thick octavo, 665 pages.

    This book is the first of a trilogy of books [also Tommo and Hawk and Solomon’s Song – we should have a copy]. The trilogy is based around the life and acquaintances of Ikey Solomon a London Jewish fraudster who finds his way to Van Diemen’s land aka Tasmania. Ikey was for sure the man behind the character Fagan of Charles Dickens fame.

    Anyway, lots of goings on in the Old Dart and then Tasmania where Ikey’s old mistress achieves some elevation and starts a Brewery “The Potato Factory”. Ikey’s wife who arrived under her earlier own unfortunate circumstances is not happy.

    Ikey Solomon a true Tasmanian character
