Wind from Danyari is the first book in the saga of the Hennessey family who live on Walara, a sheep station in the Gascoyne district of Western Australia. The book begins in 1712 when the Dutch East Indiaman, the Zuytdorp, is wrecked on the Gascoyne coast and dips into the fictional lives of the Aboriginal people who lived there. It follows the fortunes of Joe Hennessey who took up the Walara lease and built it into one of the finest properties in the Gascoyne district and his two sons to the beginning of World War Two.
