Foreword
ОглавлениеPalmerstone Ridge is an Australian based story with its beginning after the conclusion of the First World War. Promiscuous living was not looked upon with any favor. A pregnant girl would often conveniently disappear for the best part of a year. Her child would be adopted and not heard of again.
I hold great admiration and respect for the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia. They have had a large impact on my life and living standards. I wish to dedicate this story to the hard working people that tirelessly continue their amazing work to the remote communities.
May it be appreciated that not all people are blessed with an ideal copy of life. Who among the living may claim that their lives have been without any ups or downs. Of grief or sorrows mixed with the ultimate joys. Sprinkled with ambitions that may extend a little beyond a reasonable degree of average living. What should one consider would constitute 'average'?
We all have been given many attributes and possess wondrous abilities. As well as some rather unpleasantries that have a nasty habit of emerging at some of the most inopportune and inconvenient moments. Such is the way of life. Made up of many different colors and equally as many different shades. With the living showing differing degrees of strengths , trusting , and loyalties.
Don Allen
