Synopsis
Five years ago, in 1825, Missabella and her ten orphans the Switherby Pilgrims had voyaged from England to New South Wales, in primitive Australia. By dint of tough pioneering work they had turned their coastal land grant into a true, if rustic, home. Missabella, now, is determined to provide for the future of her orphans according to each one s character. Not an easy task, with such a varied, ragtag, yet lovable set of personalities and backgrounds as they represent. Selina will train in Sydney to be a milliner; Paul may become a midshipman; Francis loves to farm. But what will satisfy clever, independent Cassie, who has ambitions to be a writer? The "Jamberoo Road" leads her inland, to the discomforts and enticements of being governess in a wealthy colonial family. There restless Luke, likewise employed by the family, as a stable boy, will create his own troubles. Cassie s story, interwoven with Luke s and that of all the other orphans and their former farmhand Eben s, is both an account of personal growth and a vivid journey into early-day Australia.", Five years ago, in 1825, Missabella and her ten orphans¿the ¿Switherby Pilgrims¿¿had voyaged from England to New South Wales, in primitive Australia.

    Ordered Tuesday night. Shipped early Wednesday morning. Arrived on time Saturday morning by USPS Bound Printed Matter from TN to WI. It was packaged in a gray plastic shipping bag without cushioning. End of spine had minor shipping damage (see photos). It was the only noticeable condition issue on an otherwise very good used cookbook. Exceptional value. Good experience with a not-for-profit organization. Thanks!

    This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products she sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with her customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you.
