Product Description

Synopsis
Wrongfully convicted and transported to Australia, Sara Dane's future seems bleak. This harsh new world, however, brings her the love of three very different men - Richard Barwell, her first and abiding love; Andrew Maclay, farmer, gambler and smuggler, and Louis Bouget, a wealthy emigre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read, 12 April 2008
By Mrs. Judith Lugg (Wolverhampton, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this book many years ago - in fact, it was the first of Gaskin's books that I ever read and I found it excellent.

Deportation to Australia really was a life sentence at the time of the book's setting and the wealth of historical detail and description is heart stopping.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a good story and one that is highly believable. All of her books are either excellent or very good and all well worth a read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sara Dane, 28 Nov 2008
By L Murphy (Ireland) - See all my reviews
This story set in the late 1700's early 1800's is the story of a poor, convict girl determined to escape a life of depravation and join the ranks of the colonial gentry. From the hold of a prison ship bound for Sydney, Sara is released to become a maid. Stripped of her rags, the now luminous Sara is coveted by a ships officer, Andrew Macleay, whom she soon marries, much to the disapproval of the colonial establishment. Sara's fiercely independent spirit and driving ambition are underrated, however, and she soon gains acceptance among the elite. But when tragedy strikes she is again ostracized and must fight a courageous battle for her freedom and status.

This is a very good read, if you ve never read one of Gaskins books this is a good one to start with. Ive ordered the DVD of Sara Dane... Hopefully it ll be as good as the book!
