Synopsis "From Dhobie’S Bight to Duntroon"

Dan Simpkins, although born in Narrandera on the Murrumbidgee River in the south west of New South Wales in 1942, spent his childhood and formative years on the far north coast of the state. Because of his father's nomadic lifestyle, he attended five different one-teacher bush primary schools, so small that on two separate occasions when larger families relocated and the little schools had to close, his education proceeded by correspondence. Stability was achieved with the award of a state bursary allowing attendance over five years at the Lismore High School. Dan worked as a bank teller in Canberra for twelve months after high school before entering the Royal Military College, Duntroon. This book commences by tracing Dan's forbears as they settled into Australia, and then follows his own upbringing from the bush at Dobie's Bight to the start of his life in the Army. It is another example of the value of hard work and education.
