A saga of wild bulls, wild horses, unexplored wilderness, and close encounters with sharks, crocodiles, and the planet's deadliest snakes as the author, a young expatriate from Texas, plunges into the heart of Australian outback adventure.
Taken under the wing of the Northern Territory's most outrageous character, the author pursued the dangerous profession of bull catching, capturing wild bulls and buffalos on the open range wilderness of the Northern Territory, not unlike Texas immediately after the Civil War, only the author, in bare feet and worn out cutoffs, used Toyotas instead of horses and threw them down by the tail instead of roping them.
Readers will be fascinated by this story filled with the unique places, events, and colorful outback characters that make "Crocodile Dundee" look like an effete buffoon by comparison.
