Gotta Love This Country!

About this book

In his very popular Saturday column, the "Fitzy Files," Peter FitzSimon's usually writes about famous sports men and women. But from time to time he throws in stories taken from grassroots sport and daily life.Ā These are heartwarming and generous tales that make Australians puff out their chests with pride from being from a country that still celebrates the kind of sportsmanship remaining the ideal of all good people.Ā These are the stories that make Australians say, Gotta Love This Country!
