Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor edgewear.

In 1896, a little-known Scot, David Carnegie, set out from Coolgardie to cross Western Australia's forbidding Gibson and Great Sandy deserts. Not only was he successful, but Carnegie also repeated the journey from north to south.

While the Royal Geographic Society hailed his feat as remarkable and important, Carnegie was largely ignored by officialdom. This fresh examination of David Carnegie's life and achievements seeks to put the record straight and place him firmly among the select band of great Australian explorers.
