Publisher Comments:

Joy Hooton, an authority on Australian autobiography and co-author of The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature, has compiled an absorbing anthology of some of the finest autobiographical writings from the convict era to the present day. She illustrates the strengths of this literary form, which has loomed large in Australian writing since European settlement.

Review:

"[Hooton] has created an anthology that is successful....the entire work paints a vivid picture of the distinct and diverse history of Australian colonization in a manner that a single autobiography or an academic study could not hope to achieve....All collections."--Choice
