A Woman's Friendship, an analytical portrayal of social and sexual relationships, makes ironic comment on a section of Australian colonial society and the roles which women were assuming for themselves within it. Re-publication of the novel now may help to reinstate Ada Cambridge, to the position she once held as a leading novelist of late nineteenth century Australia. It is one of her "lost" works, published originally through the standard outlet for resident Australian authors of the 1870s and 1880s, the colonial newspaper press, and unrecorded in bibliographies and literary histories.
