AbstractHistoryArchive Description

An overtly Christian 'Western' set in Australia, the story's objective was to promote the benefits of Billy Graham's crusade by focusing on the lives of several individuals. (Graham had undertaken a tour of the country in 1959.) The central characters are Bob and Kathy Prince, an American brother and sister who have come to Australia to manage the cattle station owned by their father. While Kathy treats the local Aboriginals with respect, Bob is prejudiced against them and only changes his attitude after he hears Graham's message on the radio.
