Deborah J. Swiss - The Tin Ticket: The Heroic Journey of Australia's Convict Women
2011 | ISBN: 0425243079, 0425236722 | English | 384 pages | EPUB | 0.5 MB

The Tin Ticket takes readers to the dawn of the nineteenth century and into the lives of three women arrested and sent into suffering and slavery in Australia and Tasmania-where they overcame their fates unlike any women in the world. It also tells the tale of Elizabeth Gurney Fry, a Quaker reformer who touched all their lives. Ultimately, this is a story of women who, by sheer force of will, became the heart and soul of a new nation.
