Premise
[edit]It concerns the struggle between two brothers on a sheep station in northwest New South Wales. The action begins in Paris and the Gubby family feature.
Reception
[edit]The Argues said "Plenty of action, sudden deaths, drover's Whistles, the thunderin hooves of cattle, and the whole raucous, colorful cavalcade of Australla in its lusty infancy, will ensure Mr. Timms' readers of a good bill of fare."[2]
Radio version
[edit]The novel was serialised over Australian radio in 1957, being read out by Lyndall Barbour.[3][4]
