One of them was Esther Abrahams, the teenager who later became the colony's unofficial First Lady. Esther was an inspiration for this rich social history, in which Lysbeth Cohen celebrates 200 years of Jewish women's achievement in New South Wales. More than 200 women are profiled, from pioneers and battlers to prominent figures in public life and the Arts. Active, energetic, thoughtful, innovative, kindly, creative - these women have contributed immeasurably to life in this state, and sometimes beyond its borders.
