It is January 1835 as a newly-orphaned thief gathers what meager possessions she can find, places them in a hessian bag, and barely escapes with her life. When her journey leads her to the squalor and poverty of Cork, Ireland, Cherokee Rose Harper is viewed as just another raggedy street urchin. But what no one knows is that she is being pursued by those who want nothing more than to punish her for her crime.With her only kin, her brother, away fighting as a mercenary, Cherokee Rose seemingly has no choice but to travel as far away as possible. After she disguises herself, she secures a job as a cabin boy on the ship, Neva, bound for the colony of New South Wales. While aboard, she befriends a young man, Ruian Conner, who protects her secret. Four months later when the Neva is wrecked in Bass Straight, Cherokee is rescued by a group of whalers and taken to mainland Australia where she is saved by an aboriginal, Wajum, who soon leads her on an unforgettable adventure across the grand continent.A Spirit of Place is the historical tale of a young orphan's journey across the seas from everything she knows to a new life in mainland Australia.

Cole Hawkins began his American journey in early nineteenth century New York but eventually made his way to the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. Through his many adventures, he always followed his Indian animal totem, the hawk. Now, his saga continues, as do his travels and his loves. His children grow to take and make their own place in the land. They journey along the western trails, where Native Americans still play a prominent part of life in the wild. Journey into the dangerous and greedy time of the California Gold Rush. Ride beside the cattle drives of the Southwest. Finally, witness the horror of a prolonged and hateful Civil War. Sons and daughters rise above hardships aplenty to make their own ways as America tries to heal its wounds and grow to nationhood.
