About the Author

Steve Langley was born in Paddington in 1936, and grew through World War II years in the then slum areas of St Peters, Erskineville and Newtown. He was three when his father joined the Australian Military in 1939. His naturalized Australian German born Grandfather took on the role of father, mentor and friend. It mattered not for Steve that his father was away fighting with the famous Sixth AIF Division in the Middle East. To the kids in the streets, and Erskineville Public school, he was a Nazi and was daily bullied. He learnt to fight back, and went on through varied lifestyles to achieve his life fulfilment in the rugged ranges of the glorious New England.
