Turner, Baynton, Richardson and Palmer were four of the most prominent women of Australian literature of their time. Some made a fortune, others simply dressed as though they had; but each of them left her mark on the literary history of our country, taking womens place in literature beyond that of the iconic drovers wife.

Competition, rivalry, friendship and camaraderie are the pillars of this hugely enjoyable story, by the award-winning author of True North and Mannix. Niall also uncovers previously concealed material for the first time, making this a never-before-read account.
