'The world has changed. The men and women of the outback are passing on. Fortunately, we have the memories and the stories of those who developed this great nation. They are the unsung heroes that built on the earlier efforts of the pioneers; the advancement and improvements created by the outback people have strengthened the character of our nation. These generations endured in the isolated regions while the cities had regular power and water supplies. My heroes carried water in canteens on “difficult to catch” mules and the light at night in the stock camps was a carbide light — if you were lucky. These stories are written adventures about the outback people of Australia; they are the Privileged Few of our generation; they belong to the past 80 years of progress of outback history and knowledge.'
