Along the way, he introduces the larrikin characters, stubborn competitors and volunteers who keep these events going—often in spite of chaos, weather and the occasional spectacular stuff-up. It’s a vivid portrait of bush life, rich with mateship and the kind of eccentric tradition you couldn’t invent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003ePerfect for readers who enjoy rural humour, travel writing, Aussie culture and short, easy-to-dip-into stories.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eAdd it to your cart for a warm laugh and a window into the bush at its most inventive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53180564111636,"sku":"9780733342950","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9780733342950_1.jpg?v=1785134137","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/great-australian-bush-festival-stories","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
