An Outback Marriage

The posh, English daughter of an Australian pastoralist is sent to Kuryong station to learn the ropes. At the same time, a search is underway across the desolate innards of regional New South Wales for the lost son of a wealthy uncle. These stories collide to give a humorous take on the values of family, marriage and hard work, set in the beautiful backdrop of the Australian Outback. This was Banjo Paterson's first novel after a string of widely celebrated poems written in the late 1800s. Banjo Paterson (died 1941) was an influential writer of the modernist period. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. As a work of classic literary fiction, An Outback Marriage exemplifies the narrative craft and social insight that defined great storytelling of its era.
