Description
Profiles extraordinary Australian women who travelled to France at different times through history and who formulated their impressions in fiction, diaries, letters, and autobiographies, between 1880 and 1945. The book explores how the women adapted to new environments in a world of changing attitudes to feminine education, professionalism and sexuality. It includes the narratives of a schoolgirl, an artist, novelists, nurses and a secret agent.
