A Man Called Possum by Max Jones is a 1985 Australian hardcover that blends autobiography with cultural history, tracking one man’s off-grid life in the bush. Young adult and adult readers who enjoy true-stories-with-character will find Jones’s voice both humorous and quietly revealing.

Illustrated throughout by Tony Hersey and David Gough, the book captures landscapes, tools and everyday bushcraft in line drawings that amplify the nostalgic tone. The compact 112-page format makes it an easy weekend read and a charming shelf piece for collectors of Australiana or outdoor memoirs.

This vintage copy is in good, solid shape: tight binding, clean pages, no tears or dog-ears, and no smoke or storage odours. An earlier owner has inscribed the acknowledgement page and left light thumbing there, but the rest of the text block remains tidy and fully readable.

Ideal for collectors seeking an uncommon piece of Australian history or gift-givers after a heartfelt true-life tale, A Man Called Possum delivers both story and shelf appeal without breaking the budget.
