The disappearance in 1848 of explorer Ludwig Leichhardt and his party is one of the enduring mysteries of Australia's history. Many theories exist, but the evidence is limited.

Bruce Simpson retells the legend, weighing the various explanations of Leichhardt's disappearance with his own experience as a stockman in Queensland.
