By Liz Harfull

City Girl Country Girl brings together the stories of women who have left lives in the city or another country to build a new future in places where knowing how to milk a cow or drive a tractor stand them in far better stead than an ability to negotiate rush hour traffic or find a good latte. 

It ranges in scope from the classic outback story of Sarah Durack in the late 1800's to Liz Harfull's own mother's experiences of swapping wartime Melbourne for a dairy farm on the Limestone Coast, to the present day. 

This novel is a fascinating account of these women's journeys as they struggle through personal tragedy, hardship and self-doubt with grace, humour, perseverance and more than a little hard work.
