The eleventh epic volume in the saga of a great young nation, rugged,restless and boundless with dreams.
Back of book:
A Time of War and Glory-A time for the "new" Australians to forge a wild land into one united state.
The days of exploration were over. Now cries of "unlock the land!" echoed from the outback to the cosmopolitan streets of Sydney. A young generation-farmers, bushrangers, dancehall girls, shippers, soldier's and "mates"-would be the first to call this down-under land their native soil.
Their dream was one nation under God united. Their champions were THE NATIONALISTS like beautiful Java Gordon, daughter of Jessica Broome, whose vibrant passion declared a fierce, proud country hers to fight for. But other voices raised the specter of race, hatred and violence. Now the move toward unity could forever divide a people...or prove the ultimate triumph for those who challenged an entire continent to creat one free and mighty land.
