From the jacket: Here is a magnificent novel of daring and dynasty, of riches and man's conquest of a land as big as his dreams, the Australian Outback. Australia is a land of extremes-of unexpected... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The story of a family's life in the Australian Outback, covering a span of time from around 1900 through the time of Cyclone Tracy. The descriptions of what life was like in the Back of Beyond before it was "discovered", and most of all the descriptions of the land, have stayed with me through the years.
Well Worth Reading

The story of a family's life in the Australian Outback, covering a span of time from around 1900 through the time of Cyclone Tracy in 1974. The descriptions of what life was like in the Back of Beyond before it was "discovered", and most of all the descriptions of the land, have stayed with me through the years. Definitely recommend.
