Description

The story in this book is about a young Irishman who came on a visit to Australia and has a fascination with the great outback and wants to get himself a job on one of the large cattle properties, but he doesn?t know how to go about it. Young Shaun McCready was in Sydney and walking along Bondi beach when he saw some strange looking characters sitting on the sand with some pretty girls. The men had their shirts off and their skin color was Lillie white in places and dark tan in areas that had obviously been in contact with plenty of sun. Shaun spoke to the men and began a conversation. The men told him they were ?Ringers from the top end.? That means stockmen from the north of Australia, especially the Northern Territory. Shaun had worked with his uncle in Ireland training race horses and the men told him that this would be enough experience to get him a job on a Territory cattle station. All he needed to do was go to the head office for the company right here in Sydney. Shaun went to the head office and had no problem acquiring a start on one of their properties in the far north west of Australia. The next day he was on his way by plane and coach that took a couple of days to travel to the remote outback of the Northern Territory. Shaun was collected by the mechanic of the station who took him straight out to the mustering camp situated in the wide plains where you couldn?t even see a tree. He was absolutely fascinated with this amazing sight before his eyes. Shaun soon learned to work cattle and to learn the ways of the wild men that lived in that area. Most of the staff were native aborigines, and they were terrific cattlemen and horsemen. He learned much from just watching how they operated. Shaun found out things about himself that he didn?t know existed. All it took was the lifestyle where he now lived that brought amazing skills to the surface in his life Shaun met a lovely girl who worked at the post office in town and he soon fell in love with her. Shaun loves his new life and he knows for a fact that he?s going to be in it for the long haul and not just a few months experience. Shaun is living in an environment that most people have never heard about. Everything he does is totally fascinating, which he happily adapted to in no time at all. He even began to speak with an Aussie accent. Shaun?s experience in the outback of Australia is an example of the way of life that most people do not know about. Even people living in Australia are not really familiar with what goes on in the country where they live. The story of Shaun McCready is an example of how people over the years immigrate to Australia, and soon adapt to their new environment and become the special people who live in this great country of Australia today.
