Skillfully crafted short stories set in the Australian outback in the 1930s to 1950s. Great humour. Tall stories. Wit as dry as a dead dingos dongers. Laugh and cry with the bush characters, Paddy, Timber, Taffy, Dutchy, Ding Dong, Rusty, Squeaky, Stinky, Butch and many others.
Meet them at the Commercial and Railway hotels, Joe the Greek's cafe, at the sale yards, on the farm or in the bush.
As Aussie as CWA, lamingtons, damper, Holden cars, cattle dogs, or a frill-neck lizard on the black stump.
Taste the dust, shoo the flies, feel the heat shimmering off the plains, wipe the sweat from your brow, get a cold beer, sit back and enjoy these great yarns.
