Good story, but I didn't know it was set in Australia. Some of the phrases were kind of unusual.

A good story well told but may be of interest only to those who have had a similar experience.  It would be somewhat difficult  to visualize what is being described unless you have had some acquaintance with either the training, flying or combat.  Well worth reading if you fall into that category.

I enjoyed the personal story. We who had served weren't all in country. It was interesting to see how the other people endured their time.

Well written and interesting read.  The author has had some very difficult things to deal with in his personal life and his story is informative - but also draws the reader in.

I liked this book. It is an interesting story of an American that apparently was born with a ticket to the upper levels of buisiness wealth and power. His curious nature, intellect and drive led him into a search for fulfilment, and ultimately into the upper echelons of Tibetan Buddhism.  He undoubtedly has more adventures ahead of him.  Perhaps this story is "to be continued".

I found this to be an easily readable story about one womens exploration for a path to awakening. I liked that she was open minded and honest about how she found things to be for herself. I found it very educational.

Enjoyed this l don't often read autobiography's and l have no idea really why l chose to read this. It is the story of one woman's life  and the choices she made in an environment forced upon her. It isn't all skeleton's and pain but the story of one life and certainly one struggle.

For anyone who has forefathers which  came from this type of environment then this will be a very interesting read ...way better than some dusty history book.

I found this story very interesting.  I could relate as a child with learning problems and having been a teacher myself.  It makes you stop and think about how we are teaching our kids.

I found the story to be very interesting and educational.  I learned a lot about the everyday life of the migrant workers and the kinds of work they did during the depression.  The author did a very good job of tying up loose ends at the end.  There were times when I did wonder what the story of one person's life had to do with another person's life.  After I read the story, I went on line to read about the photo of the "Migrant Mother", which made me appreciate the book even more.
