“Beyond the Bitumen – The racy narrative of Beyond the Bitumen recalls life in the Victorian countryside and on cattle and sheep stations in Queensland in the first half of the twentieth century.  It evokes the end of Australia’s great pastoral era, with its splendid old homes, go-for-broke land deals, and individualistic men and women.
Bush Stories – is an entertaining collection of bush lore, gleaned from a lifetime of first-hand experience in the Australian bush.  A host of intriguing characters and anecdotes make up this portrait of the old rough and ready days.”
