Born in 1942, Les Joseph Pickering left school at age 14 years to work on his father’s property, ‘Mittagong Station’ in North West Queensland. No helicopters, quad bikes, satellite phones or huge road trains then.
Here are his true tales of swimming stock across flooded river, dodging saltwater crocodiles, chasing and being chased by savage wild pigs and bulls. Stories of droving trips over wild country; brave, loyal dogs; bush characters; wild storms; life threatening encounters with saltwater crocodiles; country racing capers and more.
Writing in his laconic bushman’s style, Les relates mishaps, adventures and misdemeanors of young men in the wild untamed Gulf Country of Australia of not so long ago.
