From the cover:

'This edition of Miles Franklin's classic saga of pioneer life in the alpine country of New South Wales - the country of 'The Man from Snowy River'- has been entirely re-edited from Franklin's unpublished first draft. Largely based on tales that were handed down from her maternal grandmother, who was an early settler in the region, this edition carries the story of the pioneering Mazere, Poole and Brennan families from the late 1840s to the mid 1850s. As a story of adventure and romance, it is enthralling; as an authentic picture of colonial life, with its hard-working, God-fearing settlers who clung to the ideals of genteel society, its ex-convicts, gold-fossickers and bushrangers, it is unsurpassed. The book abounds in memorable characters, from Bert Poole, with his daredevil courage and his hopeless passion for the wife of another man, to the indomnitable matriarch, Rachel Mazere, and her daughter Emily, the belle. Illustrated with charming black and white line drawings. '

All my books are described as accurately as possible. However, I can not look at every page on every book. If I have overlooked something please let me know..
