Billy Harper was born and raised on a small cattle property, but the future on the place seemed doomed. Over the years, the station suffered a series of crippling droughts, water holes receded to muddy puddles, grass became scarce, and the cattle died. This left the property in a financial crisis. Billy could see no future there, so he packed up his gear and moved out to face the uncertainty of what lay ahead of him. In his travels he experienced many dangerous encounters with crocs, dingoes, and wild natives. This is the story about a young man who roamed the countryside seeking work and facing the most impossible situations and setbacks on his journey for survival.
