It begins with the story of Jane Hewett who migrated with her eight children to Australia from England in 1850.

This book is of high interest because it is an important social history of Australia detailing the lives of the Hewett families.

This is a soft cover book of 274 pages detailing the family history of the author Graeme Davison. The cover is cream-coloured and has sepia-coloured photographs of the author’s ancestors on the front and back. The printing on the front and back covers is in gold and black.
