We of the Never-Never is a novel written by Jeannie Taylor Gunn in 1908. The book is set in the Australian outback during the late 1800s and early 1900s and follows the experiences of a young woman named Jeannie Gunn. Jeannie has recently married a man named Aeneas Gunn, who has been appointed as a government official and is tasked with managing a large cattle station in the Northern Territory. The novel explores the challenges and hardships that Jeannie faces as she adapts to life in the rugged and isolated Australian outback. She must learn to cope with the extreme climate, unfamiliar customs, and the harsh realities of life on the cattle station. Despite these challenges, Jeannie is determined to make a life for herself and her husband in this new and challenging environment.Throughout the book, Jeannie encounters a diverse cast of characters, including Indigenous Australians, European settlers, and other outback inhabitants. She learns about their cultures, traditions, and ways of life, and develops a deep appreciation for the land and its people. We of the Never-Never is a classic work of Australian literature and is widely regarded as a landmark in the genre of outback literature. It provides a vivid and detailed portrait of life in the Australian outback during a time of great change and transformation. The book is a testament to the resilience and determination of the people who lived and worked in this challenging environment, and it continues to be celebrated and studied by readers and scholars around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
