Manganinnie, an old Tasmanian Aborigine, is separated from her people in the Black Drive of 1830.  Desolate, she takes a little white girl to share her life, passing on to her the ways of her tribe.  This is the touching story of a courageous and loving woman striving to preserve a unique culture.  'Manganinnie', a novel, is an authentic and compassionate treatment of a tragic episode.  First published in 1979, it is widely regarded as a classic of Australian children's literature and has also won acclaim from the Aboriginal community, educationalists, and readers of all ages.

Beth Roberts, a sixth generation Australian, was brought up near Bothwell in Tasmania.  'Manganinnie' draws on her own childhood experiences of the Australian bush and reflects her deep love of it.
