Violet wakes in an abandoned laboratory with little to no memory of who she is or how she got there. Slowly her memories return to her as she finds her way home. As she searches for answers about her past Violet is hunted by creatures that are near impossible to kill...for normal people anyway. Violet isn't normal though, not anymore. Book Review 1: "The characters were extremely vivid and well-imagined. I was intrigued by the world and wanted to know more." - Kelly Boworth Book Review 2: “Fallen Colonies is a creative and inventive look into a living, breathing dystopian world, lush with vivid environments and dynamic, progressive characters. Slight discrepancies in pace are overshadowed by sheer creativity, with gripping plot points to keep readers guessing throughout the ride. In short, Fallen Colonies offers readers a look into a brand new, elaborate mythos just waiting to be unraveled.“ - Mr. English Book Review 3: "I couldn’t put it down. I stayed up until 2am finishing it. Truly a fun read!" - J. Newland

This work is a history book of the original Thirteen Colonies of the United States. They were originally a group of British colonies on the Atlantic coast of North America, who fought the American Revolutionary War and formed the United States of America by declaring full independence. Just prior to declaring independence, the Thirteen Colonies in their traditional groupings were: New England (New Hampshire; Massachusetts; Rhode Island; Connecticut); Middle (New York; New Jersey; Pennsylvania; Delaware); Southern (Maryland; Virginia; North Carolina; South Carolina; and Georgia).

Originally published in 1950, this book forms the substance of two lectures delivered by Sir William Hancock (1898-1988) that year. The lectures suggest that economic and political dependence are matters of degree, and that advancement or stagnation can be explained by the interaction of economic, social and political influences.

My book traces the significant poetic and political contributions made by non-canonical women poets, situating women's poetry both in colonial Australian print culture and in wider imperial and transnational contexts. Women poets in colonial Australia have tended to be represented as marginal and isolated figures or absent. This study intervenes by demonstrating an alternative networked tradition of transnational feminist poetics and politics beyond and around emergent masculine nationalism, particularly within newspapers and periodical print culture. Without the inclusion of periodical literature, women’s poetry in Australia during the colonial period would appear to have been fairly limited. When periodical literature is taken into account, this picture is radically altered, and poets emerge as consistent contributors, often across a variety of newspapers and journals, who were well-known, influential and connected with political figures and literary circles. In examining this poetry in the original context of the newspapers and journals, the political intervention and the reception of that poetry is made much more apparent.
