AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'From the gentle romance of "Kissing Emily Baker", to the trials and tribulations of a young English family setting out for a new life in 1920s Australia in "The Group Settler''s Wife", this collection contains fifteen stories of love, second chances and new beginnings that will enthral Anna Jacobs' many fans and new readers alike.

'Who would think a pelican could act as matchmaker? Enjoy a "bachelors and spinsters" ball in the outback. Live with settlers to Western Australia in the 1920s. Ever thought where those personal advertisements might lead? An attempt to avoid Christmas leads to another sort of celebration.

'Have you ever wondered what sparks an idea for a story? Well, Anna explains that with each of these tales.'
