"The author, one of Australia's most widely travelled writers, ranges in the chapters of this book across the remote and lonely northern section of the Australian continent, from the Barrier Reef and Cape York Peninsula to the Kimberleys and down to Alice Springs.  He meets and talks with station-owners, stockmen, drovers, miners, missionaries, aircraft pilots, engineers, and pearlers, and rides with a truck-driver along one of the loneliest roads in the world - the Murranji Track."
