No Place for a Nervous Lady by
Author: Lucy Frost
Soft cover, very good condition.
No Place for a Nervous Lady by Lucy Frost is a compelling collection of true accounts that illuminate the experiences of women in colonial Australia, revealing the courage, endurance, and resilience required to survive in a harsh and often unforgiving land. Drawing on letters, diaries, and personal records, Frost brings to life the stories of settlers, convicts, and adventurers who faced isolation, hardship, and danger while forging new lives far from home. Through vivid storytelling and careful historical research, she challenges the male-dominated narratives of colonial history, highlighting the vital and often overlooked roles women played in shaping Australia’s past. The book stands as both a tribute to their spirit and a vivid portrait of life on the colonial frontier.
