“Scott Pirie is the son of poor immigrant farmer and Josie Eyre is the daughter of the most influential landowner in the small Murray River town of St Helen.  At the centre of both their lives is a Welsh pony.  To Josie, wealthy but crippled, the pony is Bo, an important compensation for her useless legs.  To Scotty, the pony is Taff, wild and independent, like Scotty himself.”
