She produced high‑quality, memorable and multi-sensory histories, including the Cyclone Tracy exhibition at the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory and the reinterpretation of Fannie Bay Gaol. Informed by a great love of books, her passion for history was infectious. As well as offering three original chapters that appraise her work, this edited volume republishes her first book, In Search of the Never-Never. In Dewar’s comprehensive and incisive appraisal of the literature of the Northern Territory, she provides brilliant, often amusing insights into the ever-changing representations of a region that has featured so large in the Australian popular imagination.Australian literatureAustraliaNorthern TerritoryHistory and criticismNorthern TerritoryIn literatureNorthern TerritoryhistoryAustralian literatureHistory and criticism.820.999429McGrath Annedt792611McGrath Ann1956-Australian National University Press.WaSeSSWaSeSSBOOK9910320754403321In search of the Never-Never3397597UNINA
