Gold and Greenstone - Barry Crump - 1993

Sally could do most things better than men, but it was difficult to get a job in a recession. On the road and looking for work she involuntarily teams up with an unlikely character and finds herself on the end of a shovel on the West Coast. A unique story unfolds of hard work and dreams, of gold fever and greenstone, of helicopters and high-seas, of laughter and tears and culminates with a romantic twist and a happy ending.
