His are the mountains

Set against the wild, unforgiving landscapes of 19th-century Australia, His Are The Mountains is a gripping tale of survival, resilience, and unexpected connections. In 1883, Robbie Dunn’s family escapes the squalor of Scotland’s tenements, embarking on a perilous voyage to Queensland. Their dream soon becomes a desperate struggle as they journey south through colonial Australia’s harsh frontier, seeking stability. In the rugged mining town of Hartley Vale, young Robbie grows up amidst strikes, scab labour, and a miner’s life while forging bonds of friendship and finding freedom in the untamed mountains.
