ROGER CROOK
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Roger Crook was born in Liverpool, UK in 1938 and spent a lot of his early life in North Wales. After a spell in the British Army with the famous Black Watch and then agricultural college, he came to Western Australia with his wife Lynne and infant daughter in 1967.
He has spent the last fifty years working in agriculture, from the West Kimberley to the Western Australian wheat belt and for twenty of those years in international agribusiness.
Roger and Lynne have two daughters and three grandchildren and live in Albany on the far south coast of Western Australia.
Out of Ireland have we come, Great hatred, little room.
Maimed us at the start.
I carry from my mother’s womb
A fanatic heart.
W.B. Yeats 1865–1939
