"Settling Day" by Nat Gould is a novel written in the late 19th century. It is set in the Australian bush and follows the tumultuous life of Jim Dennis, a solitary man with a troubled past, as he faces personal challenges while caring for his young son, Willie. The story delves into themes of isolation, love, and the quest for redemption amidst the harsh realities of frontier life. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Jim Dennis, who races against time to fetch a doctor for his sick child living in the remote Australian bush. As he rides desperately, viewers catch glimpses of Jim's complicated history—he is an outcast burdened by past wrongs and struggling to maintain hope in the face of adversity. His relationship with his son and the caring yet unconventional presence of Sal, a half-caste woman who looks after Willie, add depth to his character. This gripping opening sets up a narrative filled with tension, moral dilemmas, and the determination of a father's love, leaving readers eager to discover how Jim's life will unfold.
