The effects of unemployment in Peterborough during the Great Depression were brutal. Sergeant Roy Wright arrived in the town in early October 1929, just over three weeks before the Black Tuesday stock market crash. The town had already been grappling with the insidious social, emotional and pressing practical impacts of unemployment, as well as dealing with the passing parade of travelling swagmen. This book is the story of the town of Peterborough and of Sergeant Wright, how together they showed compassion and care to those in need during the Depression, especially to swagmen. Roy Wright was a man with a large heart towards those in need, he truly was the Swagman's Friend.
