In Deborah Bird Rose's writing and Sharon D'Amico's photography, we meet five extraordinary clan women: Nancy Daiyi, Kathy Deveraux, Margaret Daiyi, April Bright and Linda Ford. They share their world with us, their family, their laughter and their passion for country. In learning something of the ecology and sacred geography of the clan's homeland, we are prompted to enlarge our own country, wherever our homeland may be.' (Source: Back cover)
