Book Description
What was it like to live as a queen in ancient Egypt, or as an Amazon warrior in western Africa? African Princess tells the stories of six remarkable royal women and the eras in which they lived, from 1473 B.C. to the present. Some lived in great luxury; others lived in exile as freedom fighters. The rise of the slave trade and the arrival of European colonists unsettled the entire continent and forced rulers to find ways to govern and protect their kingdoms. Consequently, many of these royal women ruled in extremely difficult times, marked by palace intrigue, foreign invasion, and harrowing adventure.

Book Description
Jeannie Gunn's 'The Little Black Princess: A True Tale of Life in the Never-Never Land' is a captivating narrative that delves into the relationship between a European woman and an Indigenous Australian girl in the remote Australian outback. Gunn's literary style is characterized by vivid descriptions of the harsh yet beautiful landscape, as well as sensitive portrayals of the cultural clashes and misunderstandings that occur in this setting. The book is a significant contribution to Australian literature, offering readers a glimpse into the complexities of race relations and colonialism during the early 20th century. Jeannie Gunn, also known as 'Mrs. Aeneas Gunn,' was a pioneering author who drew inspiration from her own experiences living in the Australian outback. Her firsthand knowledge of the challenges and triumphs of life in the bush shines through in this novel, making it a powerful and authentic portrayal of a bygone era. I highly recommend 'The Little Black Princess' to readers interested in Australian literature, colonial history, and cross-cultural relationships. Gunn's thoughtful exploration of identity, belonging, and empathy makes this book a compelling and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in issues of diversity and inclusion.

Book Description
Mickey Dewar made a profound contribution to the history of the Northern Territory, which she performed across many genres. She produced high‑quality, memorable and multi-sensory histories, including the Cyclone Tracy exhibition at the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory and the reinterpretation of Fannie Bay Gaol. Informed by a great love of books, her passion for history was infectious. As well as offering three original chapters that appraise her work, this edited volume republishes her first book, In Search of the Never-Never. In Dewar’s comprehensive and incisive appraisal of the literature of the Northern Territory, she provides brilliant, often amusing insights into the ever-changing representations of a region that has featured so large in the Australian popular imagination
