AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A widowed Melbourne sea captain marries a loving spirited Adelaide woman who transforms the disputes of his relatives by firmly standing her own ground. Part romance and family saga; part light exemplary tale where the woman who stands up to relatives, husband and children with firm love is shown to win love and respect. Family gossip and characters well written. Amusing in part; exemplary moral lightly told. (PB)
