Slim Dusty. Song Title Series, #5

A young American male, hitch hiking through Australia via the outback, is given a lift by an old Australian Travelling Showman. Somehow the Australian Bushman seems to know what is troubling the young man "Duncan" and introduces him to people, like Jimmy an indigenous elder and the two old diggers who help him try to understand his past. With this help along the way, Duncan begins to unravel his dreams and life in unusual ways.
How do these people know about Duncan's past and how does Johnny know about the new person that comes into Duncan's life before Duncan tells him?...... A Testimonial from the back of the book "After reading through your range of books I felt I must compliment you Joan on the imaginative and entertaining way in which you presented each group and the Musicians in those groups. The way the stories were constructed is a credit to your work ethic.
These must have taken considerable time to piece together and it is obviously a work of love for you.  Peter Harkins, Managing Director Cheapa Music, Country Musical Capital Tamworth.
