Description

With Foreword by Herbert Basedow, M.D., B.Sc., author of The Australian Aboriginal, extracts from Lasseter's Diary and Letters and photographs of the 1930 Expedition.


Morning Post (London) - "Perhaps the greatest of Australia's real life epics."


Otago Daily Times (NZ) - "One almost finds it difficult to believe that the story is modern and true."


Sydney Mail - "One of the most graphic, most poignant, and most absorbingly interesting tales that the chronicles of Australian exploration - those treasure stores of dramatic adventure - have ever revealed."


The Herald (Melbourne) - "A true story that for sheer excitement, thrills, and sustained suspense, cannot be surpassed by even the most imaginative novelist."

     

"Please please, read to your children.
Read in a lively way.
Read with love not duty"
