| Summary: | "Rachel Kennedy was a pioneer folk hero. Born in the Warrumbungles in 1845, she was a wild colonial girl who was described by Duke Tritton, the famous bush balladeer of the The Bulletin, as Australia's greatest pioneer woman of them all. And yet we know nothing about her. She caught brumbies, hid bushrangers, went to war with squatter kings, fed starving families during the shearing strikes, worked as a revered bush nurse and midwife, and fought for the underdog after observing the bitter experiences of Aboriginal people and Chinese miners. She also built a lifelong 'sistership' with Mary Jane Cain, an Aboriginal girl who became a pioneer Indigenous right activist, and the story of that powerful friendship intersects the book showing some of the duality of the Australian frontier. Her extraordinary and pioneering life story has never been told. And what a story it is." |
