Guy Boothby 
Sheilah McLeod 
A Heroine of the Back Blocks

Australian author Guy Boothby was extraordinarily prolific during his short-lived career. He produced dozens of works spanning numerous genres before his untimely death at age 38 during a bout of influenza. Sheilah Mc Leod is a rollicking romance packed with plenty of adventure, telling the tale of a couple who grew up together and whose love appeared to have been fated from the very start.
