Growing up on a dairy farm honed John Cutty Cutmore's tenacity and wry humour. Here is a tale of tough times and good times in the Obi Obi farming community deep in the beautiful hinterland of Queensland's Sunshine Coast, interspersed with photographs and humorous anecdotes of unlikely characters and stories tall and true. When a horrific farm accident causes Cutty injuries that no-one in the world is known to have survived, the community rallies to his support. Cutty tells of his fight for life and an amazing recovery, aided by a loving family and friends and the determination of skilled doctors and nurses.
