Book Description

Secondhand. Fair condition. Substantial wear to book corners and edges, now protected from further damage with book tape. Previous owner's stamp is now covered with black ex libris sticker. Foxing to foredges. Too good a book to throw out.

Convict Women looks beyond the conventional images to draw a new and often surprising picture of convict women's experiences in a strange and harsh country.

Beginning with the story of Maria Lord, a convict, pioneer family woman, successful entrepreneur and abandoned wife, the book looks at the central themes of convict women's history in Australia, ranging from the female factories and orphan schools to sexuality and freedom.

Compelling stories about the lives of women at a time when Australia was a gaol. (back cover)
