Step into the ramping, roaring days when the Royal Mail was delivered by the legendary Cobb and Co. "Oh, they were good days-rough days, quart pot days, damper days, perhaps-but still, they were big, brave, generous days", as Henry Lawson so aptly put it. Days when the world was wide, and adventure beckoned at every turn.
Immerse yourself in an array of amusing anecdotes and unforgettable tales that embody the grit & graft of the age. Let the romance and poetic charm of those times sweep you away, breathing life into the spirit and stories of a bygone era.
Embark on a journey that begins with the infamous 'snake in the trousers' tale-a legend that never fails to stir a chuckle. Venture through the extraordinary courage of Mrs. Mary Jinks, a mother of twelve who faced every challenge with unshakable resolve, and the unfortunate demise of swagman Tom McBride. Traverse deep, untamed creeks and billabongs-formidable obstacles that tested even the most hardened traveller. Relive the tense 'Bail up!' moments experienced by Cobb and Co. coach driver Palmer, who wisely understood the perils of facing bushrangers, during the era spanning 1854 to 1924.
Through countless anecdotes, these stories illuminate the true spirit of the pioneers-their hard work, resilience, and boundless grit, shaping the fabric of early Australia. Every tale offers a glimpse into an era where determination, unyielding courage, and a hearty sense of humour flourished ... "What would you like-lamb, ram, sheep, or mutton?"
