Fun read. This entire book is the narration of one man about his many exploits leading hunting parties to the ages of the Dinosaurs. It is made more interesting because our narrator is bushman from the Aussie outback. His world view makes the stories interesting and fun. He may not be the right man for many professions but he is certainly suited for this one. I wouldn't want to go with anyone else.
