The way places shape individual and community identities are explored in this history of women's experiences in the Australian and Canadian frontier in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The personal experiences of these women are diverse, ranging from running the local medical facility, raising children, and scaling mountains to studying botany, learning native languages, and riding horses. Weaving together the lives of women who lived in different landscapes, climates, and eras, this historical study ties their stories together with contemporary reflections of the author.

Core of My Heart, My Country
Somehow it's this book that really showed me how the 1970s was a retreat from the radicalism of the '60s -- hello Nixon, right? But it's so tempting, from the distance of a generation, to see the 1970s as a decade of nonstop radicalism. In Midlife Queer, Duberman gives us a critique of gay assimilation from the inside -- like his role on the board of the National Gay Task Force (later National Gay Lesbian Task Force). Sometimes the book can get a big grand, especially when Duberman is critiquing the New York theater world. My favorite part is when he explores various 1970s modes of therapy in attempting to get out of the depression that surrounds him, and doesn't necessarily succeed. I like the way he invokes utopian goals, since, as he says, "only utopian goals, I believe, will allow us partly to succeed."
