AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'This collection of stories by the author of The Shiralee presents a raw and authentic picture of life in the Australian outback - vigorous and harsh, lonely, sometimes heartbreaking. The people and the land itself come compellingly alive to the reader under the spell of D'Arcy Niland's writing.' (Source: 1963 Michael Joseph edition)
