От залива Лохрос до реки Ричмонд: семейная история, сформированная в Ардоне и построенная в Австралии

Some family stories fade. Others are carried forward — in memory, in records, and in the lives that follow. From Loughros Bay to the Richmond River traces the journey of the Strong family from the coast of County Donegal, Ireland to the far side of the world, where a new life in Australia had to be built from the ground up. Beginning in and around Ardara in the mid-1800s, this is a story of migration without guarantees — where survival depended on hard work, resilience, and the determination to keep going, no matter what came next.What you’ll find inside From the cedar ridges of the Shoalhaven to the dairying districts and river communities of northern New South Wales, the story unfolds across changing times and landscapes. Told with warmth, detail, and a strong sense of place, it draws readers into the journey and the lives shaped by it. This is lived history — shaped by ordinary people doing what had to be done, and passing something forward to those who came next. Why this book stands out
