Featuring some of the best examples of colonial Australian romance,
this anthology includes writers such as Ada Cambridge, Rosa Praed,
Francis Adams, and Henry Lawson. These fascinating stories
illustrate the many different outcomes of romance--happiness and
marriage in some cases, loneliness and regret in others.
Highlighting the theme of colonial women being challenged by an
unfamiliar lifestyle in a strange place, this collection also
depicts men of this period being put to the test, sometimes failing
in the quest for love in a brave new world.
