About this product

Product Information

'It doesn't matter if there are four thousand people watching or just four - you're a horseman, roughrider, entertainer. At that moment, rodeo has you bitten and it doesn't let you go. You just want another ride. I remember them all and how it all started.' Alywn Torenbeek's - the Kokotunga Kid - left his outback hometown at fourteen, looking for adventure. He took with him a bushman's spirit, an uncanny natural ability for horseriding and a determination to succeed. By the time he was 21, he was a national and international rodeo champion. When fate put an end to his roughriding career, Alwyn went on to be a stockman, drover and station manager. A devoted family man, he was encouraged to take up endurance riding by his great friend, the legendary R.M. Williams, and is still competing more than four decades later. A riveting tale of adventure, romance, tradegy and mateship. Alwyn's story is also a tribute to the outback and the characters who make it special. From Winton to Wanganui, this is the ride of a lifetime. 'A non-stop adventure and an amazing insight into a by-gone era.' Queensland Times

Honestly, one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had on eBay. Highly recommended to deal with. Responsive, reliable and packaging well durable and clearly labeled. Only thing I’d do differently is offer to pay extra for tracking considering Aus Post took longer than expected to deliver & I’d thought it was lost. Otherwise, couldn’t be happier.

Absolutely EXCEPTIONAL service. Seller went above and beyond to get the book to me, shipped the same day it was purchased and bumped me up to faster shipping at his own expense. Can not recommend highly enough. Book is just as described, my friend will love this gift! Thank you once again.

  • Rodeo books my husband likes to read

    I bought this book for my husband, who is really not a bibliophile and I cannot find books which he likes to read. He really liked this one as he knew people in the rodeo scene at the times mentioned in this book.
