AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This rich book charts the complex relationship between two iconic Australian women of the mid-20th century: Daisy Bates and Ernestine Hill. Journalists and writers, Bates’s and Hill’s life stories are set against the “great Australian loneliness” of the outback. It is a masterful act of storytelling that is beautifully written, and readers are drawn into an intimacy with the subjects.' (Introduction)

    'This issue of the Journal of Australian Studies leads us towards a rich mix of contested, forgotten or untold histories across 19th- and 20th-century Australia. A range of cultural artefacts is central to these histories, from rock art to infant clothing to fences and bollards, as are material practices and labour, both free and unfree. Such a sweep of stories, agents and forces in history reminds us that our understanding of “Australia” is always assembling, and humanities scholars play a critical part in this.' (Emily Potter & Brigid Magner, Assembling Australia: Histories, Materials and Labours, Editorial introduction)
