Great Australian Ute Stories by John Bryant
We invented it. We love it. The ute is a national icon alongside the pie and sauce. It is the very symbol of our resourceful ingenuity. No matter what you drive, this collection of ute yarns will charm you with its laconic humour and Aussie warmth.
Written by everyday Australians in praise of our love affair with the ute, this collection unashamedly celebrates the joy of circle work, the improbable allure of feral utes and the ute's perennial ability to save the day, win the girl and excite the dog.
A bumper collection of hilarious and heartwarming Australian stories collected by ute-aficionado John Bryant. This book also publishes for the first time the winner of John's Number 1 Ute Legend competition.
