In 1902, newly-married Jeannie Gunn (Mrs Aeneas Gunn) left the security and comfort of her Melbourne home to travel to the depths of the Northern Territory, Australia, where her husband had been appointed manager of 'The Elsey', a large cattle station. One of the very few white women in the area, she was at first resented by people on and around the station, till her warmth and spirit won their affection and respect. This is her moving and simple account of her life amidst the beauty and cruelty of the land.

Good personalised historic review.

In contrast, I found this an intriguing personalised historical review of how life presented itself at the time. The descriptions relate to how it was, not how it should be. Lose the value of attitudes and flavour of human existence in any one sector of time and we lose the value of human history whereby we can reflect and improve ourselves. Good to see this view of a past arduous lifestyle from a female perspective.
