In the early 1930s, Collier and his family moved to Meldrum
Creek, where the couple built their own log house and learned to
live off the land. Fulfilling a promise to Lillian's grandmother
to bring the beavers back to the area she knew as a child before
the White man came, Collier was instrumental in the species'
survival. Collier's timeless tales about roughing it in the bush
and the resourcefulness inspired by this lifestyle's challenges
will engage readers young and old.
