'Thoughtful and curious, critical and kind, Yves Rees's study of these globetrotting Australian women richly renders their lives and times, as well as contemplating how we reach across time to read them today.' - Anna Clark, Australian Research Council Future Fellow, University of Technology Sydney 'Fresh, captivating, and full of fantastic women. Yves has somehow managed to assemble the greatest fantasy dinner party you never knew you needed, whilst also uncovering a fascinating and untold side of our history. A real treat.' - Zoë Coombs Marr, comedian, performer and actor 'Yves Rees has the remarkable ability to bring history into the present, reminding us all that the only thing that really separates the generations is a linear notion of time. Travelling to Tomorrow gives voice to the women at the forefront of Australia's own "American Revolution". What I love most about Yves is how they bring an unwavering commitment to human rights in their exploration of history, the language of equality ever-present in their handling of the past. In Rees, we have found a historian of rare skill - they possess the ability to tell us something we didn't know about something we thought we did.' - Clementine Ford, feminist writer, columnist and broadcaster 'This book is a knockout. Yves Rees is that rare historian who thinks like a scholar and writes like a dream - the literary equivalent to floating like a butterflying and stinging like a bee. You will want to meet these fearless and feisty women: women not only before their time in forging new geocultural paths to independence but also making their times by putting flesh to the bones of modernity. Rees gives us their stories in full-bodied, hot-blooded fashion. A sheer delight.' - Professor Clare Wright OAM, Professor of History, La Trobe University. . These are USED books.
