Patsy Kemp is the Drover's Daughter.

Drought, flood, cold, heat; Australia is a land of contrasts, and the bushies who live off the land wouldn't have it any other way. Is there anything more delicious than fresh lamb chops, grilled on a shovel over an open fire?

Travelling through north-east Australia as one of seven kids with two adults, 5,000 sheep and at least six horses and four dogs, The Drover's Daughter offers a fascinating insight into life in the outback. Patsy Kemp shares the highs and lows of growing up on the stock routes of New South Wales and Queensland in the 1950s and 1960s.
