Octavo; hardcover; 369pp. Mild wear; scraped upper board edges; mild insect damage and some scraping to the lower board; lightly toned and faintly spotted text block edges. Dustwrapper spine panel slightly faded; now professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Very good. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. "Australians, confronted with the unpalatable complication that so many of their ancestors were convicts, have tended to portray the early inhabitants of Botany Bay either as unregenerate riffraff, or as refugees from economic oppression in Britain. These caricatures have been particularly unjust to the first generation of colonial-born Australians, and Portia Robinson has now sought to rescue this 'long neglected race of men and women' from the condescension of their contemporary superiors and later historians. Through individual and collective biographies, based on rarely used sources, and a mass of quantitative and qualitative evidence, she has brought into the historical spotlight, in all their fascinating diversity, the white children born in early New South Wales and also their parents, many of whom were, or had been, convicts. She stresses the stability of family life and the close relationships of children and parents.This is a major work of revisionist scholarship to be complemented by a separate volume of documentary evidence." - American Historical Review.

Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. "The Women of Botany Bay" is a history of the European women who came to New South Wales as convicted felons or as the free wives of convicts. It is based on the re-creation of the individual and collective British and Australian lives of every woman convicted in England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales and transported to New South Wales between 1787 and 1828, and as many of the 'convict wives' as could be traced. The contribution of these women to the development of a distinctive Australian society and their influence on the nature, structure and characteristics of that society, has been ignored, glossed over or distorted. It is the aim of this book to allow these women to speak for themselves after some 200 years of neglect and misrepresentation. It is on the evidence of their own lives, achievements, failures, hopes and despairs, that their influence on both the social and economic development of the colony of New South Wales is reassessed.
