This is true Australiana history and well worth a read... This is a fascinating and true story of a bush legend of the 20th century. Known only from fleeting glimpses to the people of South Australia's Riverland region who gave him his name, the Possum deliberately turned his back on society to live almost entirely off the land as a recluse along the banks of the Murray River. It took Max Jones, country detective, almost thirty years to solve the mystery behind the man called Possum. From chance encounters, brief meetings and full-scale conversations with the man himself, and from testimony of others, the author pieced together Possum's extraordinary life story. Well worth a read...
