This 1996 book is a powerful and moving history of the treatment of single mothers and their children in Australia. Covering the period from the 1850s through to 1975, when the legal status of illegitimacy was abolished, the authors explore continuity and change in areas such as infanticide, abortion, sex education and marriage.
