AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'This well-researched book considers the biographies of two independent, eccentric women whose lives overlapped, although they were from different generations: Daisy Bates was born in 1863, Ernestine Hill over 30 years later in 1899. Both women felt more at ease living and travelling away from urban and rural centres, preferring remote Australia, the ‘Loneliness’. Much has already been written about Bates, much less about Hill. Eleanor Hogan became interested in their overlapping stories when she began researching the life of Hill after reading her book The Great Australian Loneliness, and came across correspondence from Bates to Hill that catapulted her into writing this double biography.'
