True North by Jill Ker Conway
True North is the inspirational Canadian Chapter of Jill Ker Conway's life story, which began with her much love, bestselling memoir, The Road from Coorain. Beginning with her departure from Australia, Jill Ker Conway tells of her romance with Harvard House Master John Conway, of coming to grips with his manic-depressive disorder, and of their move to Canada in 1964 where she became the first female vice-president at the University of Toronto. In this vibrant memoir, we watch as a most private woman makes of herself a public persona in Canada.Jill Ker Conway was the first woman president of Smith College after teaching at the University of Toronto from 1964 to 1975. She has been a visiting scholar at MIT since 1985 and lives in Boston.
