Dry River by Rachel Percy as told by Dave Mills

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Some minor marks on foredges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

David Mills' (1936-1991) biography, Dry River, is a richly detailed account of working life in the Australian Outback in the last days of the old stock routes and packsaddle cattle camps. An extraordinary story of an ordinary bloke.

Mills was a Geraldton farm boy who wanted nothing other than to be a drover and enjoy station life, and he did, in Western Australia, Northern Territory and Queensland.

Mills inspired Randolph Stow's novel Tourmaline.
