Bigfella kidman - Matthew Smalley

When Australian Cattle King Sid Kidman brought his family to England for a year in 1908 he was the biggest private landowner in the world, but his preferred way to explore the city was to board a two-horse bus and tip the driver to let him take the reins. His newspaper interviews and huge outback land deals made Sid a celebrity, but he believed that everyone deserves a fair go, and in Bigfella Kidman he offers a new life in Australia to the horse bus drivers losing their jobs to London's new red motorbuses. During a country house weekend, one of Britain's wealthiest financiers also offers him an investment deal, with strings, that could double Sid's outback empire. Both offers will turn the lives of all the main characters in Bigfella Kidman upside down, on both sides of the world...
