Reminiscences of West Queensland Trip Through Drought and Dust
The narrator recalls a long rural journey from Augathella to Boulla and Longreach, describing patchy rain, regrowth, stock health, and improving fencing. He notes towns like Barcaldine, Longreach, Dajarra, and Arandangie, references to past rail lines, selectors tanks, and changes after years of hardship with a wary optimism about recovery.
