This book follows his life there as a Pupil Teacher, to the Balmain area, where he played soccer for both Balmain and New South Wales, to a role as an instructor with the fledgling Royal Australian Navy.

Written by Joe's eldest son, Geoffrey Thompson, now 97, we explore Australia between the wars, early motoring up and down New South Wales, and family holidays at Durras, till Joe's sudden death in 1942.
