The The Busiest Shop in Sydney
By Pamela Staff
Based on the life of 19th century entrepreneur, Harriette McCathie, this book tells her story of loss, hardship and triumph against the odds.
Alone, after the demise of three husbands, with only her children for support, she ventures into the hostile male dominated business world as a single woman.
She has only her canny business knowledge and fierce determination to guide her, as she opens her first establishment in King Street.
With an unprecedented bank loan in her own name, she grows her shop into an icon of Sydney's CBD - the busiest shop in Sydney.
