Paperback. Slim Dusty was Australia's most well-loved and best-known country music performer. A legend in the bush, his famous hit 'A Pub With No Beer' made him a household name in the towns and cities too.

This is the story of their love for each other, their family and their music - and their determination to bring country music to the whole of Australia. Slim died in 2003, but throughout Australia, and around the world, people are still playing his songs and passing them on to new generations of fans. In this updated edition of this classic biography, Joy McKean writes about her family's commitment to honouring his memory and their work to keep his name alive.
