Book Synopsis Kings in Grass Castles. [On the Durack Family of Australia. With Plates, Including Portraits.]. by : Mary Durack
Book excerpt: When Patrick Durack left Ireland for Australia in 1853, he was to found a dynasty of pioneers, and build an empire of cattle-land across the great stretches of Australia. His grand-daughter, Mary Durack, with a profound sense of family history, has rebuilt the saga of the Duracks, a saga that is the story of Australia itself, huge, pioneering, and tremendous in concept.
