John Harper is a grandson of Charles Harper and is researcher and author of the publication The Story of Woodbridge House and its builder Charles Harper.
Through a historical study of events and individuals, John shares with us a deeper sense of place, a welcome addition to Western Australia’s history.
John provides a delightful account of his grandfather’s pioneering efforts for the Western Australian community 110 years after his death.
The publication tells of Harper’s experiences both on the land and as a parliamentarian with a relentless ambition to achieve mass agricultural dispersion across Western Australia.
