3 14 y separately published work icon My Love Must Wait : The Story of Matthew Flinders Ernestine Hill , ( trans. Kurt Lutgen with title Meine Liebe muss warten : Roman ) Minden : Kohler , 1962 Z843543 1941 single work novel historical fiction

'When Matthew Flinders, the first man to chart and circumnavigate Australia, set sail from England in July 1801, he left behind the intrigues of his homeland but also his young bride of only a few weeks, Ann Chappell. He didn't see her again for more than nine years. During that time he carried out incredible feats of seamanship and navigation, made the first charts of much of the coastline of Australia, and was shipwrecked and later held prisoner by the French on Mauritius.

'Meticulously researched and written with great insight and sensitivity, My Love Must Wait is both a tender portrayal of faithful devotion, and a stirring re-creation of the courage and endurance of one of history's greatest seamen. ' (Publication summary)
