The Shearers

For 150 years Australia rode on the sheep’s back…

The Shearers is the first history of that independent army of men  who tramped the great shearing routes of the outback. Patsy Adam-Smith talked to shearers, musterers, teamsters, drovers, rouseabouts, classers, cooks, contractors and property owners about what life was like when wool was king.
