Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outback Governesses is collection of eye-opening stories about fourteen governesses who drop in, Mary Poppins-like, to educate children in Australia's remotest rural areas and in return receive a bush education of their own. Outback Governesses is collection of eye–opening stories about fourteen governesses who drop in, Mary Poppins–like, to educate children in Australia's remotest rural areas and in return receive a bush education of their own... From the School of the Air to vast outback stations, small rural schools to remote Indigenous communities around Australia – all across this wide brown land, governesses and teachers drop in, Mary Poppins–like, to take over homestead schoolrooms and the responsibility of educating children. The governesses are often young women from urban backgrounds, and they become part of the family they work for as well as the local community, and share the trials and tribulations of station life. They fall in and out of love, learn to ride horses and motorbikes, explore spectacular parts of Australia, help with station work, cook and eat with the family, attend rodeos, campdrafts, country races, and the local shows, and other bush events. There are medical emergencies, seasonal floods, bushfire and drought that all affect station life and the school routine. And then there are the unwelcome visitors to liven things up – snakes, bats, mosquitoes, centipedes, flies, feral pigs, red back spiders and the massive insect explosions following rain. There is always something happening and you can never be sure what the day will bring. Living and working in isolated areas can mean battling poor access to technology, teaching children who speak English as a second language and learning how to engage and motivate children who might be the only student in the classroom. Days can swing from triumphant, hilarious and joyful, to downright difficult – but it's clear from the tales in this collection, the rewards of teaching outback far outweigh the disadvantages – there is nothing like a bush education.

It is required reading for both students and experienced researchers alike.

Download or read book Beyond the Outback written by Bronwyn Blake and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty women share their incredible stories of surviving and thriving in the remote Australian 'Gulf Country', near the Gulf of Carpentaria. Gulf women are self-sufficient, generous, and can cope with almost anything that life and the environment throws at them: floods, drought, sickness, emergencies. Whether they are graziers, fisherwomen, ringers, women in tourism, aviation and education, Indigenous women or descendants from early women settlers, this powerful book gives these women a voice to tell their own stories. There are stories of new mothers on properties isolated and inaccessible for months in the wet season; women giving birth at home with only neighbours to assist; reminiscences from last century and World War II, and accounts of fishing in the Gulf in sometimes unimaginable conditions. From the kids wanting a baby croc for a pet to the terror of a snake bite with a flooded airstrip and impassable roads, these women treat the extraordinary events in their lives as just part of their remote way of life. Set in a world of vast landscapes, distance and merciless climate, Beyond the Outback contains riveting tales of the lives of the women who live, work and raise families in one of Australia's most isolated regions. It will be loved by readers of Sara Henderson, Toni Tapp Coutts and Terry Underwood.

The American Governess is another intriguing tale of family connections, mysteries, heritage and culture, from the author of Ella's Secret Family Recipes and The Lornesleigh Legacy.

Download or read book Taking on the Bully (taxman) written by Elly Foote and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A soul-wrenching tale of one family falsely accused of criminal tax evasion. Nathan and Elly arrived in Canada in 1973, after travelling five years on horseback through the three Americas. They became Canadian citizens, raised a family and carved a ranch out of the wilderness in northern British Columbia with Belgian draft horses. In 2006, inexplicably, the family was swept up in the Canada-wide wave of terror originating with the Harper government, intended to spread fear among small business owners, and, through fear, taxpayer compliance. And to divert attention from the off -shore tax havens of the rich. Trail hardened and resilient, Nathan and Elly would not allow themselves to become victims of a bully. They launched a civil lawsuit against the tax agency that attacked them without merit, mercy, or fact. They acted as their own lawyers. The battle lasted ten years. This small book has a big message: when you have the guts to stand up for what you believe, no one has power over you!

This book was released on 2001-12-06 with total page 927 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive guide to women activists from every part of the world, illuminating the broad range of women's struggles to reform society from the 18th century to the present. Despite being marginalized, disenfranchised, impoverished, and oppressed, women have always stepped forward in disproportionate numbers to lead movements for social change. This two-volume encyclopedia documents the visions, struggles, and lives of women who have changed the world. This encyclopedia celebrates the lives and achievements of nearly 300 women from around the globe—women who have bravely insisted that the way things are is not the way they have to be. Nadeshda Krupskaya, the wife of Lenin, spearheaded the drive against illiteracy in post-revolutionary Russia. American Dorothy Day founded the Catholic worker movement. Begum Rokeya Hossain organized a girls' school in Calcutta in 1911. Rachel Carson launched the modern environmental movement with her book Silent Spring. The stories of these women and the hundreds of others collected here will restore missing pages to our history and inspire a new generation of women to change the world.

Download or read book The Clairmont Family Journals 1855-1885 written by Sharon Joffe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition presents the extant journals of Pauline Clairmont (1825–1891) and Wilhelm Clairmont (1831–1895), the niece and nephew of Claire Clairmont (1798–1879) who was Mary Shelley’s (1797–1851) stepsister. It also includes a journal originally attributed to Pauline but which likely was Walter Gaulis Clairmont’s (1868–1958; Wilhelm’s son). All three journals are currently deposited in the Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle at the New York Public Library. Pauline and Wilhelm spent many years living and working in places like Australia and the Banat and their adventures are recorded in their journals. Pauline wrote a series of sixteen journals cataloguing her life; however, except for one journal, all the remaining journals have been lost. Her extant journal, written primarily in English but with French and German entries, documents her struggles in the Australian outback during the 1850s and her relationship with William Henry Suttor, Junior, who would later become a pastoralist and a politician. Pauline’s journal tells of her love for Suttor, her disappointment at his rejection, and her musings about her life in Australia. In his journal, Wilhelm chronicles his attempts to purchase a farm in Europe while Walter provides us with an account of his 8-day Austrian expedition. This new edition brings together these three journals, thereby extending our understanding of the Shelley-Clairmont family. The edition includes an introduction to the primary Godwin-Shelley-Clairmont circle and a chapter on the history of life writing. The editor provides extensive editorial notes and carefully researched chapters to contextualize The Clairmont Family Journals: 1855–1885.
