- Summary:
-
Tom Shea leaves the confining social codes of his native Ireland for the wide-open space of Australia. Struggling to earn a storekeeper's living and supporting a growing family, he is beset by a sea of personal and societal troubles. But compassion triumphs as Tom sees beyond his community's prejudices and recognizes the wisdom of his indomitable wife Kitty and the resources of another target of local prejudice, Punjabi herbalist Bandy Habash.
