Book Synopsis
The first aboriginal woman to be named in exploration literature is Ouray-Ouray; the best known is Trukanini, erroneously called the last Tasmanian when she died in 1876. This book gathers together these strands, and that of a vibrant women's literature, linking them to place - an island of still unspoilt beauty and unique flora and fauna.

You can enjoy following her itineraries around the island and be amazed by the information about a multitude of women.' - Alison Alexander 'What a wonderful project! I couldn't put it down. It's based on very detailed research and she has brought to life so many important aspects of Tasmania's history.' - Lyndall Ryan"
