Colin Roderick was closely associated with Miles Franklin for ten years preceding her death in 1954.  He was entrusted with evidence of her activity as Brent of Bin Bin, and she nominated him, in her will, as one of the original judges of the Miles Franklin Literary Prize.  For almost thirty years he has been silent on his intimate knowledge of Miles Franklin’s background and her secrets.  He has written this book to restore her to what she believed to be her rightful place in the Australian story: not so much a feminist as, more significantly, the creator of a new mode in Australian literature.”
