Produktbeschreibung
This is a memoir about traveling along an iconic track in the Australian Outback decades ago. The story dates back over 50 years. Much has changed in the interior of Australia since then. A graded dirt road now exists between Birdsville and Marree, and well organized Eco-tours allow one to explore the back country in safety. Living and traveling conditions were a lot harder and riskier half a century ago. There were no cell phones for communication, just limited two-way radio in the outback stations. People died on the Birdsville track when their vehicles broke down and they wandered away looking for water. As a city-bred lad I was relatively ignorant of life 'beyond the black stump', so there were numerous mind-opening learnings from my trip. This story is carefully derived from notes made at the time. Added to the memories are the personal reflections and lessons that have served me well over the ensuing years. Enjoy an adventure into a revered Outback area of the land down under.
