In 1957, officers from the Welfare Branch of the Northern Territory Administration began patrolling the Gibson and the Great Sandy Desert. Here, they found the Pintubi people, still living a traditional lifestyle and culture, having had no contact with Europeans and white people.

In 1963, Douglas Lockwood, a correspondent with the Melbourne Herald, was invited to join a patrol into the Gibson Desert, 960km west of Alice Springs and 320km across the Western Australian border.

First published in 1964 by Cassell Australia, this is a Readers Digest Book Club copy.
