Outback highways: The Gunbarrel Highway story and many more

by Len Beadell

Len Beadell, OAM, was often called the last of the true Australian explorers. As a surveyor and road builder he worked all over the outback from Arnhem Land to the Gibson Desert. He was also a much-loved author who brought outback Australians onto the page in all their vivid originality.

Drawn from his best-selling books, these stories sparkle with humour and paint a fascinating picture of the hard work, the bush characters and the rollicking adventure that were all part of Len Beadell's rich experience.
