About this product
Product Information
- In the early 1950s, Rod Braybon's father had died, leaving his mother with eight children she couldn't care for. As a ward of the state, Rod was passed from institution to institution until he finally ended up at the notorious Bayswater Boys' Home run by the Salvation Army. Rod endured years of ill-treatment at the hands of the Salvation Army, then spent a life-time repressing the memories that haunted him. Finally, Rod decided to speak out. His story created a nation-wide sensation and won a prestigious award for the journalist who broke it. That Rod survived at all is nothing short of a miracle. 'Salvation' is a story of courage and the indomitable Aussie spirit.

Salvation - an eye-opener
A fascinating, but sad, picture of the treatment ...dished out to the children sent to the Salvation Army Boys Home at the Basin, Victoria. Simply written it follows the true story of a very young boy and the terrible abuse he suffered. Much of what happened to him and many others is now before the Royal Commission in to Child Abuse.
