Publishers Description: "This is is one of the most stunning stories I have ever read - I will never forget it"An amazing and unforgettable true story of the adventurous life of the Australian entrepreneur, Wally Eaglesham. Raised in the harsh 1950s bush environment of the then wild frontier town of Emerald in Central Queensland, he learned at a very young age to become his own person as he continually redefined himself. Always unpredictable, this remarkable man eventually built a successful multi-million dollar business. How he overcame and dealt with his addictions, competitors and many life threatening events is nothing short of astounding. Although this book is an autobiography, the narrative at times reads much like a novel. There are two elements that create its magic. One is the actual content which is enthralling, the other is his writing. The colloquial speaking voice rings true. There is no sentimentality, the detail is realistic and not cliched. Wally ends his book with a profoundly moving chapter that embraces notions of love - of forgiveness that as a reader you will never forget. Numerous adventures with heart-thumping near death experiences embrace laugh out aloud incidents that follow the twists and turns of this most unusual narrative. Never staid or predictable, this remarkable man with limited education shares his psychology of success, not from any manual, but from the countless dog-eared pages of his real life experiences underpinned by his extremely interesting personal and business principles. This very Australian-Australian, a recovering alcoholic (now 20 years dry) with ADHD (Adult Deficit Hyperactive Disorder), PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) has been battling Parkinsons disease for the past twenty years with the same determination and conviction which resulted in this classic book with its classic character.- MARGARET PEOPLES M Litt.
