Book Description
Secondhand. Fair condition. Wear to book corners and edges, with front cover corners now protected by book tape. Dampstain to the inside front cover, title page and dedication page. Staple binding has pierced title page. Otherwise, the book is complete, and the body text is still very good.
This is the heroic and sometimes tragic story of the Irish immigrant families, the Costellos, Duracks and Tullys, who came to Australia in the 1840s and 1850s.
It was particularly the mothers who suffered heart-rending tragedies, as the family dynasty founded the great cattle stations in the South West corner of Queensland.
In the 1990s, the fifth generation of Tullys still lived on Ray Station. Author Fleur Lehane (nee Tully) uses family archives and historic photos to present a woman's viewpoint on South-West Queensland's greatest pioneers.
