The autobiography of Robin Miller, daughter of Horrie Miller and Mary Durack.

When she completed her training as a nurse and a pilot, she was offered the single-handed task of vaccinating the North West and the Kimberley population against polio. This meant visiting isolated ports, townships, mining camps, missions, cattle stations and remote communities. Called the Sugar Bird Lady by children, her experiences ranged from the tense to the bawdy, from the dramatic to the pathetic. (book flap)
