From Horse and Carts to Sputniks

About the Book

I was born in Cobar, on 12 June 1939, and left there when I was only two weeks old. I think my mother and I went to Winbar Station where my father was breaking in brumbies for saddle stock horses, for the station hands on the property, to use for mustering. My father’s name was John Bernard Noonan (he was known as Jack), and my mother’s name was Laura; her maiden name was Blacker (in her later years, my mother became known as Lorna).
