Oral History Project
Hear the stories of Australia's drovers in their own words
In Partnership with the National Library of Australia
The Drovers Oral History Collection captures the voices of 122 individuals, with interviews recorded by Bruce Simpson and Bill Gammage between 2000 and 2006. Most interviewees are retired drovers, but the collection also includes graziers, station managers, stockmen, ringers, shearers, teamsters, horse breakers, and a few bushwomen. These interviews bring to life the stories of those who shaped Australia's rural heritage, particularly in droving and related professions.
