"The Bull Catchers" by Jim Sayles
A saga of wild bulls, wild horses, unexplored wilderness, and close encounters with sharks, crocodiles, and the planet's deadliest snakes as a young expatriate from Texas, motivated by the impending sale of the family ranch and recently released from active status with the US Marine Corps, plunges into the heart of Australian outback adventure.
Taken under the wing of the most outrageous character in the Northern Territory, the author pursued the dangerous profession of bull catching, capturing wild bulls and water buffalos on the open range wilderness, only the author, in bare feet and worn out cutoffs, used Toyotas instead of horses and threw them down by the tail instead of roping them.
Anyone who has ever yearned to travel to Australia or yearned for adventure travel in general will be fascinated by this story filled with unique places, unusual events, and colorful outback characters that make "Crocodile Dundee" look like an effete buffoon by comparison.
