Overview
A fascinating story of Governor Bligh's trouble-making daughter, Mary, a powerful and determined woman from the bestselling author ofElizabeth and Elizabeth.
'Superb narration and engrossing drama.' Tom Keneally
Mary Bligh is no shrinking violet. After an horrific six-month sea voyage from Britain, she proves as strong-willed as her bloody-minded father, the newly appointed Governor William Bligh. The pair immediately scandalise Sydney with their personalities, his politics and her pantaloons.
When three hundred armed soldiers of the Rum Rebellion march on Government House to depose him, the governor is nowhere to be see. Instead, Mary stands defiantly at the gates, fighting them back with just her parasol.
Despite being bullied, belittled and betrayed, Mary remains steadfast, even when her desperate father double-crosses her yet again in his last-ditch attempt to cling onto power. But will Mary turn out to be her father's daughter and deceive him in pursuit of her own dreams and ambitions?
Sue Williams returns to the untold stories of?the women of colonial Sydney with another fascinating, meticulously researched historical novel.
Praise for Elizabeth and Elizabeth:
'An extraordinary story of female leadership at a time when such a quality was frowned on, and female friendship forged against the odds. Sue Williams' Elizabeth & Elizabeth brings us a nuanced and vivid portrait of the early days of colonisation. More importantly, it delivers a fascinating look into the relationship between two remarkable women.' - Meg Keneally, bestselling author of The Wreck
'Well-written, rich in historical detail and engaging...a lovely novel and recommended reading especially for those interested in Australia's past.' - Book'd Out
'A fascinating and evocative story of an enduring friendship between two women who played such an important role in colonial Australia's history.' - Caroline Beecham, author of Finding Eadie
