Renowned historian Jill Roe, whose grandparents were early settlers of South Australia's west coast, revisits her mid-century childhood in what was one of Australia’s most remote regions. Rhythms of work and play were punctuated by moments - the annual show, a visit from young Queen Elizabeth - that connected farming lives, however briefly, to a changing world. With urbanisation comes uncertainties. As her story unfolds, Jill Roe contemplates the future of Eyre Peninsula and the role of regional Australia in this young century. Our Fathers Cleared the Bush is a charming, thoughtful blend of history, memoir and ideas.

Roe was appointed an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) in the 2007 Queen's Birthday Honours. She was elected a Fellow of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia (FASSA) in 1991[7] and the Federation of Australian Historical Societies (FFAHS).
