The Bride Ships is the history of immigrants who came to Western Australia between 1849 and 1889 on the 'bride ships' carrying women who were brought out as servant girls to a colony overpopulated by men, both free and bonded.
The history of immigration is traced both chronologically and through the individual biographies of those who immigrated.
