Description

Stories of committed and resourceful women who demanded something different from the restricted lives of their mothers and grandmothers. The achievements of Australian women have long been overshadowed by the deeds of Australian men. Susanna de Vries has challenged this with her provocative book detailing the life stories of 36 courageous Australian women who broke down the barriers of prejudice.
