Written in the manner of "The Thorn Birds", this book covers the years 1872 to 1900 and takes place in New South Wales, Australia. Memorable characters, a good love story, and lots of historical references in the development of this area. Some technical sections on gold mining & steam engines and some politics, which would appeal to men.
