Reflections: Profiles of 150 Women who Helped Make Western Australia's History edited by Daphne Popham

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Mark on tail foredge. Dust jacket has some light creasing at edges and fading to spine. Previous owner has signed inside page. Interior and binding are still very good.

The Women's Committee produced this book for the Western Australian 150th Anniversary celebrations.

It is a collection of brief life histories, mostly one or two pages long, arranged chronologically from 1829 until 1979. Some names, including Helen Scott, Georgiana Molloy and Daisy Bates, are familiar, but many other women included are lesser-known yet equally inspiring.

Large quarto size, with a photograph or miniature of most of the women and pen-and-ink sketches to illustrate each story.
