Description

"Thirty Years in Australia" is a memoir written by Ada Cambridge, a 19th-century Australian writer.

The book details her experiences as an Englishwoman settling in Australia with her husband in the late 19th century.

The memoir chronicles Cambridge's life in Australia, including her struggles with homesickness and isolation in a new country, as well as her impressions of Australian society and culture.

She also writes about her experiences as a mother, raising her children in Australia.

Cambridge also touches on broader themes related to Australian society, such as colonialism, race relations, and gender roles.

She discusses the treatment of Indigenous Australians by white settlers and the ways in which Australian society was shaped by its colonial past.

The book also provides insight into the challenges of establishing a home in a new country, including the difficulties of building a house and the challenges of making a living in a new environment.
