Bitter Sweet Lives - Journeys of the Fortune Seekers, #1

Historical Fiction featuring why pioneers left Britain and emigrated to Australia in the 1800s."I know my adversary. This is a spiritual battle between good and evil."Dan and Charlotte, both questioners of established Christian doctrine circa the 1800s, seek to leave behind their renegade reputations in Wales and England by escaping into what they hope is their promised land of Australia. But the stability allowing for their navel-watching philosophy is overwhelmed by the need to simply survive in the Social Darwinist world of the Australian gold rush.
Through this adventure, they discover answers to theological and cosmic questions. For readers, tales of heroic ancestors might be a familiar yarn, but this book takes the reader into the 18th-century world of Australia, where survival was the first order of the day."
