True Grit and Dry Wit: More Extraordinary Stories of Ordinary Australians by R M Winn

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Scratch to front cover tail right corner now protected with book tape.

In this impressive new collection, Ryle Winn introduces eight real-life heroes, each with an extraordinary tale to tell.

We meet a fencing contractor who proves you can't judge a book by its cover; two octogenarian sisters with a tragic family secret; a racing enthusiast and horse breeder who gets the shock of his life; a gutsy timberman who has side-stepped his date with the devil on more than one occasion.

Ryhylle's unforgettable stories are moving and uplifting, and proof that the best yarns really are from the heart. (back cover)
