About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox volunteers bring you 11 recordings of To The Women of Australia by Ella Wheeler Wilcox. This was the Weekly Poetry project for June 5, 20126. Read in English by Bruce Kachuk; David Lawrence; Greg Giordano; Jude; Lee Ann Howlett; Leonard Wilson; rosalinger; Maria Kasper; Matthew Datcher; SkyAlbatross and Tomas Peter. A popular poet rather than a literary poet, in her poems she expresses sentiments of cheer and optimism in plainly written, rhyming verse. Her world view is expressed in the title of her poem "Whatever Is—Is Best". She made a very popular appearance during World War I in France, reciting her poem, The Stevedores ("Here's to the Army stevedores, lusty and virile and strong...") while visiting a camp of 9,000 US Army stevedores.
