Sally Warriner spent nearly 25 years living in the outback
on cattle stations with her former husband. She is a trained nurse
who was able to use her skills to help the isolated communities she
lived in. Sally left cattle station life when her children were in
boarding school. Her sons are spread across the country and most
are involved in agribusiness. Her former husband still runs cattle
stations.
'Shining a light on the unique and often bonkers world of the
Australian cattle station, this is an engrossing, funny and
poignant memoir about one woman's resilience and
positivity...' – Hugh Bonneville, actor and star of Downtown
Abbey
'A bold and honest writer with a ton of cheek and charm. And a
story as refreshing as a plunge into an outback waterhole.' –
Robert Drewe, author.
'It's all about Australia – the Kimberley and the Territory... But
the real focus is on the people... Sally is a natural storyteller.
– Kerry Lonergan, former producer of ABC's Landline
'A riveting and personal memoir filled with poignancy, love and
humour...' – Susan Bradley OAM JP CMC
'...unputdownable. A strong woman’s memoir full of hilarious,
sometimes frightening, anecdotes . It provides an insight into a
life most of us will never experience, or could even imagine. I
highly recommend it.' – Colleen Ryan, former editor of
Australian Financial Review
'A story for suburban Australians-of a life fully lived (to date)
with a wicked sense of humour and insights into a life about which
most people have no experience. A great read.' – Peter
Dowding, former Premier of Western Australia
‘a fitting homage to the unsung women of the Aussie outback, and a
cracking read, too!’ – Take 5
