By Aaron Cordy
THE resilience of families living in remote towns all around Australia, the women who are always there for each other and the men who stand by their side, where community spirit thrives against all odds, can be explored when author Fiona McArthur brings her latest book Back to Birdsville to the Mooroopna and Nagambie Libraries.
Fiona is the author of the non-fiction book Aussie Midwives, and lives on a farm with her husband in northern New South Wales. She was awarded the NSW Excellence in Midwifery Award in 2015 and the Australian Ruby Award for Contemporary Romantic Fiction in 2020 and was shortlisted for the same award in 2023. Amongst her many heartwarming rural romance novels is the bestselling novel As the River Rises.
