Publishers Description: The shearer, so much a part of the Australian economy when the country lived on the sheeps back, is now beginning to vanish into mythology. In late 1999, Bill Swampy Marsh began to collect shearing stories. This collection brings to life a world of outback stations, larrikins, roustabouts, sagacious dogs and babbling brooks whose blood is worth bottling. Author is an award-winning writer and performer of stories, songs and plays. His previous titles include Great Australian Droving Stories and Great Australian Railway Stories.
