Book excerpt: HISTORIC NOVEL SPANNING THE FIRST CENTURY OF THE AUSTRALIAN NATION Rex Granger would see New South Wales develop from a depraved and starving convict settlement, to which no free settler would care to immigrate, to a thriving, self governing part of the British Empire. When he began life as the pampered son of a middle-class English family, Rex Granger’s expectations did not include seven years transportation to the antipodes, nor did he plan to make his fortune by working the land. The changing fortunes of Rex Granger would take him from Pristine Covent Gardens to the polluted back streets of London, from starving waif of the streets to patriarch of a pastoral dynasty.
