    'An account of one man's odyssey from 1945 to the '80s, through the far-flung stock camps of East Kimberley, Queensland's Gulf country, South Australia's N.E., the Wiluna desert fringe and ultimately from Pilbara to the closely settled area of Bindoon, near Perth.

    Memories of the work, the fun, the fauna, some politics, the encroachments of technology and some marvellous but largely unsung people met along the way.' (Source: Publisher's blurb)
