No helicopters, quad bikes, satellite phones or huge road trains then.Now retired, and still living in the Gulf Country, Les turned his hand to writing - 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.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.ver menos
