This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a fascinating report by a man who during the previous eleven years had led twelve in Australia with the principal object of searching for minerals of commercial importance. The scope of his field work was now to include reconnaissance survey, soil study, meteorology, and the collection of specimens for the Adelaide Museum. Included is a brief report by Donald Mackay entitled, 'The Mackay Aerial Survey Expedition, Central Australia, May - June 1930.' Accompanied is a lovely fold-out colour map of Western and Central Australia illustrating both reports. Donald George Mackay (1870-1958) was an Australian outdoorsman, long-distance cyclist, and explorer who conducted several expeditions to the remotest areas of the Australian continent. Beginning in 1930, Mackay supervised several aerial survey expeditions to Central Australia. The 1930 expedition surveyed the Southwestern corner of the Northern Territory. Mackay utilized two ANEC III aircraft for the survey, piloted by Captain Frank Neale and Captain H. B. Hussey, with Commander Harry T. Bennett as the navigator and surveyor. The team made 15 survey flights over 24 days, mapping and correcting the dimensions of Lake Amadeus and finding a previously unknown lake (Lake Mackay). The expedition finished at Adelaide on 28 June 1930. Michael Terry, FRGS, FRGSA (1899-1981) was an Australian explorer, surveyor, prospector and writer. He was born at Gateshead, County Durham, England. During the First World War he served with No. 2 Squadron of the RNAS Armoured Cars in Russia against the Bolsheviks, by whom he was captured at Kursk though subsequently released. He moved to Australia in 1918. Between 1923 and 1935 he led 14, mainly gold prospecting, expeditions through inland Australia. Among his published books include: "Untold Miles: three gold-hunting expeditions amongst the picturesque borderland ranges of Central Australia," "Hidden Wealth and Hiding People [a search for gold amongst the blacks of Central Australia]," "Through a Land of Promise: With Gun, Car and Camera in the Heart of Northern Australia," "Across Unknown Australia," "Sand and Sun: Two Gold-Hunting Expeditions in Australia," "Journey to NW & Central Australia."
18 pages. Plus photographic plates, and a large fold-out colour map measuring approximately 15 x 21 inches (38 x 53cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a remarkable report on significant expeditions into unknown regions to the interior of New Guinea, a journey of arduous climbing, scaling, or circumventing fragile sheer rose-colored limestone faces, navigating through valleys and gorges, and rafting powerful rivers, in the midst of perpetual earth tremors and landslides. This exciting journey, which also endured injury and shortage of food, was rewarded with the discovery of the sources of both the Palmer and Strickland rivers, of two additional previously unknown streams, and also of a pass to the main mountain range. Includes entertaining anecdotes of encounters with indigenous tribes such as attempted robbery from the traveler's camp on the Fly river, communication with signs, and the introduction of tobacco to the native populations. With a fantastic route map, not only showing two journeys, but also describing geographical features, placing huts and villages, outlining international and colonial boundaries, and indicating vast unexplored territory in the east.
