Gilbert & Son. First edition stated of this excellent account of the author’s follow-up automobile/truck expedition to his “Across Unknown Australia†which featured deep drives into the deserts of the Northern Territory and Western Australia this time driving two Guy Roadless Vehicles fitted with trailers along with an AJS motorcycle and sidecar. The British Guy trucks were rugged featuring 4-cylinder engines fitted with a detachable cylinder head and 4-speed gearbox and fitted with caterpillar tracks. The half-tracks were prone to serious wear in the desert sand eating through bushings and selals and slowed them down quite a bit. They followed Sturt Creek past Lake Stretch Billiluna Homestead and onto Gregory’s Salt Sea Lake Gregory and then the little used Canning Stock Route to Well 48. After reaching Yeeda they crossed the Fitzroy River and then onto Broome. Unfortunately the film produced during the expedition “Grip of the Wanderlust†and shown to the then Prince of Wales later King Edward VIII has now been lost.
