Two Women Travellers
b"The image of the swaggie, that itinerant soul who walked the roads and tracks of the land in search of work, features prominently in Australia\\u2019s stories, songs and poetry. But the swaggies we mainly read and sing about are men. In this episode I introduce you to Charcoal Annie and Syrian Mary, two women who experienced the life of the swaggie. Although very little is known about them, I share the information I have gathered over the years. Included are songs I've written about each of these extraordinary ladies.\\nMore information about Jim and the podcast can be found at his website at http://jimlow.net"
