About the book:
Alex Nicol takes us back to the old days in the bush, when booking into a country pub was likely to turn into an adventure, and when radio was the glue that held far flung communities together.
Full of colourful characters and making do with what’s at hand, these stories are classically Australian. There are the wartime mates who helped each other build farms on their soldier settler blocks, and the ‘Adelady’ keeping the farm running after her husband died. There is the young woman who ran down water buffalo in the Northern Territory, and Possum, the legendary bush hermit who lived off the land on his own for 60 years, quietly doing jobs for farmers without being asked
