Peter a DawPeter Daw had much less childhood than was normal in the 1950s. He was born in Port Augusta, South Australia, where he continues to live today. At age 14, his family moved to Mulka Station on the Birdsville Track, where he stayed for the better part f the next decade- foregoing formal education, and instead learning about life and hard work while 'on the run', becoming a Stockman. Now, in his twilight years, he reflects on his experiences: moving from a comfortable childhood, to being a responsible adult, working from daylight to dark - before he had hair on his chin! His years on the Track have had great influence over him, even to this day in his retirement. After leaving his life on the land, Peter married and had a family. He became a Plant Attendant at the Port Augusta Power Station until his retirement. His recount of life on the Birdsville Track is his acknowledgement of those who shared their knowledge with him in his early days; a story for those who want to hear of the life and experiences of Australian Bushmen; and, a celebration of all those who have crossed his path and become lifelong friends.
