Book Description
These simple sketches and photographs of Territory life centre around the young Aboriginal girl Bett-Bett (Dolly Bonson) and her dog Sue; as she appears from the Never-Never, stays awhile, learns a little, laughs a lot, wonders much, and finally returns to the bush again. This early tale of life in the Northern Territory was first published in 1905, and was followed up by the classic We of the Never-Never, the author's memoir of life with her family on Elsey Station.

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.
