| Summary |
Foley is the best shearer on every station for miles around. This is his story of sweat-soaked days and rum-soaked nights, of bloody two-fisted punch ups...of scab labour brought in during the shearers' strike of '56 and of the poor old bastard who runs the place: the cocky who is terrified that one slip of the shears will render his prize ram good for nothing but mint sauce.
