On Our Selection

By: Steele Rudd

Narrated by: Peter Hosking

Full of unforgettable characters and humour, this is the original edition of On Our Selection as it was first written. These are Steele Rudd's immensely popular stories about the selection on the Darling Downs in Queensland where Dad, Mother, Dave, and the rest of the family nearly starve, and eventually prosper. Rudd meant them as a tribute to small selectors like his own family. Steele Rudd is considered one of Australia's best humorists, but he is also a deep and sympathetic observer of pioneering life, in which humour was as essential as flour.©1992 ETT Imprint (P)1999 Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd
