Two years ago, John and Sue Harvey left their small tenant farm in South Devon to make a new life for themselves and their children in Australia. They took with them 20 pedigree South Devon cattle, the nucleus of a herd on which to build their future as farmers and cattlebreeders. Dan Cherrington followed their progress from the day they sold up in England, and reports on their mounting problems: trying to find a place to settle, delays in travelling, disputes about partnerships, a disastrous drought, mounting debts, but always adversity was met with a refusal to yield to despair.
