Red In The Centre I. For the best part of a year, Monte Dwyer travelled through the country sourcing stories for broadcast on Charles Wooley's radio program Across Australia. In doing so he has captured the essence of knockabout Australia, from the naked and the light to the serious and the thoughtful. Monte is a people person and his adventures reflect the easy way in which he observes and converses with a kaleidoscope of characters. and in between, woven in some of his recollections and perceptions to make a patchwork quilt about Australia and its people. Illustrated with colour photographs.
