AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Twelve year old Joanne Mitchell, who has lived with relations in Melbourne since she was five, is sent alone in a sulky to stay with an unknown uncle and aunt. When she reaches their property there is no one home and the cold impersonal home makes her feel more friendless and forlorn than ever, so she snips off her hair, calls herself Joe Casey, and sets off to roam the station country.
