Whistler's Bones: A Novel of the Australian Frontier

Whistler's Bones: A Novel of the Australian Frontier

In 1880, at the age of fifteen, Charlie Gaunt left his home in Bendigo and signed on as a drover with Nat Buchanan. Two years later he was a key man on one of Australiaâ€™s greatest cattle drives â€“ the Durack familyâ€™s epic journey from Cooperâ€™s Creek, Queensland â€“ to the Kimberley.
Drawing on Charlieâ€™s largely unknown story, and filling in the gaps with fiction, the author has created a novel unique in Australian literature. An unprecedented adventure, and a passionate love story â€“ Whistler's Bones is both a celebration of the good things in the settlement of Northern Australia â€“ and a damning indictment of the bad.
