Description |
Based on the lithograph "A Flight of Fair Game" by Alfred Ducote, the narrative explores the lives of women travelling from England on the "Princess Royal" bound for Hobart in 1832. The story reflects the entrapment, coercion and manipulation of women destined to be wives and chattels on the men in the colony. |
