Nothing to Spare: Recollections of Australian Pioneering Women by Jan Carter

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still very good.

A series of sensitively etched portraits of women who have experienced nearly a century of Western Australia's history between 1890 and 1918.

Jan Carter reaches into the lives of women whose situations range from a butcher's wife who delivered each of her seventeen children alone in a tent to a bishop's daughter who took her upper-class position for granted.
