The average working day was eighteen hours, and they worked seven days a week, often for up to eight months at a time. These men were out in all sorts of weather, with no shelter, and as the swags needed to be kept small, they would sleep on the ground with only a blanket or two to protect them. By day they were plagued by flies, at night the mozzies would take over. Nutrition was poor, and drovers often suffered from 'Barcoo rot' - wounds that would not heal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat Do You Do With Them On Sundays?\u003c\/em\u003e is a fascinating window into a world that no longer exists, and an important part of Australia's cultural history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003ePaperback | 208 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (cm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.9 x 13.5 x 1.6 | 274g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 01 Jun 2005\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/strong\u003eABC Books\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication City\/Country:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sydney, Australia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/strong\u003eEnglish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0733315674\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9780733315671\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003eGood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA vintage book that has been read but is in good condition.
