AbstractHistoryArchive Description

At Oolera, an isolated township in Central Australia, Sister Heather Jamieson of the A.I.M. answers a radio call for help from an injured stockman on Cooper Downs Station. There she is soon crossing swords with the owner, Ric Carson, who, accepting hardships for himself, invites no woman to share them. This warmly realistic novel gives a vivid picture of life in the Inland and of its impact on the British migrant who is a vital element in the Australian scene today.
