Marnie Kennedy was born in 1919 'on the bank of Coppermine Creek'. Her story takes us from her birthplace in western Queensland, to Palm Island where she grew up 'under the Act', and back to western Queensland where she spent all of her hard-working life on cattle stations. It is a story of quiet courage and determination, dedicated 'to my mother, my children and grandchildren, and my people'.
