About this book
Revealing the story of the Brigidine Sisters in the New South Wales Province, this evocative history details how, in 1883, the first six Irish-born nuns arrived in Coonamble in central west New South Wales. It goes on to tell, since then, how generations of Brigidine Sisters have set up schools and other ministries in Australia and New Zealand, and have dealt with educational, social, and religious challenges.
