Book Description

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

The incredible story of a young woman's experience when she is released from a strict, spartan mission upbringing and sent to work as a defenceless domestic servant on a property in a wealthy Australian farming district.

She is Aboriginal, 16 years old and cut off from help - a 24-hour captive of an aloof and puzzling family. She, however, is a survivor despite the petty tyranny and the humiliating treatment. This autobiography is her story told with humour, warmth and irrepressible humanity.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers please note that this book may contain descriptions and/or images of people who have passed away.
