The text of Silver Road rests largely upon edited transcripts of the nineteen hours of tape recorded interviews Mark St Leon conducted with Mervyn King in 1988 on behalf of the Oral History Program of the National Library of Australia. (p. vi)
Little could Mervyn King's grandmother realise, when she gave the seven-year-old away to a travelling circus in 1915, what an extraordinary career she put before him. The Silver Road is Mervyn's own account of his life as a circus man. (Publisher's blurb)
