Doris Taylor was paralysed from the waist down, with limited movement of her shoulders and hands.
Labelled "a cripple" and "incurable"; she began the first Meals on Wheels organisation in the world.
She challenged prejudice, sexism, and societal expectations, becoming a champion for the ostracised.
"Doris Taylor: Meals, Wheels, and Revolution" follows Doris through the social and political upheavals of the 20th century, including WWI, the rise of Communism, the Great Depression, World War II, and the recovery through the unique lens of life in Australia.
The book, written as a memoir, is based on meticulous research and the memories of the author, her niece Nayano Taylor-Neumann.
