Boss Drover and His Mates by Anne Marie Ingham

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

In the grim Depression days, 12-year-old Clarrie Pankhurst left home on the River Murray. He found an adventurous life on the great stock routes, taking huge mobs of cattle to Queensland from stations in WA and the Territory.

The drovers are gone now, replaced by road trains. Their hair-raising escapades, sense of humour, and full, generous lives live on in the yarns and memories, paintings, and photos in this book.

From the author of Wild Cattle, Wild Country and Pioneers of the Kimberley. (publisher blurb)
