Alaric Pinder Boor lived and died more than a century ago. His fascinating life has been reconstructed using historical sources including: certificates, documents, photographs, immigration, travel and shipping lists, electoral and rate book rolls, newspaper articles, letters, war records, and interpretative paintings.The literary device of ‘faction’ has been employed. The facts have been embellished with fictional stories and conversations that may, or may not, have occurred. The aim is to reimagine a life story that should not be allowed to fade into the mists of time, and hopefully introduce Pinder Boor to a new audience who can appreciate a life well lived, but cut short far too soon. 3
