Outback Brumby
Mit gedämpften erdigen Farben und klassisch schön zeigt Freeman seine Männer in all ihrer Stärke, Schönheit und Kraft. In verführerischen Posen im Cowboy-Look, ohne klischeehaft oder kitschig zu wirken, präsentiert er Kerle zum Träumen. Richtige Leckerbissen – wahre Naturwunder – die Sie so nicht in der Stadt finden. In der australischen Folklore ist Brumby ein heroisches Wesen mit majestätischen Schönheit und Kraft – genau passend also für den Titel dieses tollen Buches.

In Search of a Wild Brumby
‘I think it was one of the scariest half-minutes of my life – In The Man from Snowy River, one rider gallops headlong down a mountainside to turn the wild herd. All my life I’d thought it was poetic licence – until now.’ When Mike Keenan decided to search for a brumby to add to his dwindling stock of farm horses, he never dreamed he’d find himself crashing down a mountain in classic Man from Snowy River style.

Brumby Plains
Sam and George, 13 and 11, live at Brumby Plains, their parents’ sprawling buffalo station in the Northern Territory.

A chance encounter with an Englishman who knows more than he’s letting on leaves Sam suspicious, but all their worries are forgotten as the four kids find a spooky cave up in the hills. Vincent, their old Aboriginal friend, says they shouldn’t go there – he says it’s a dangerous place, full of angry spirits. Surely
