This is the story of how Len Beadell and his team made the first road to cross Central Australia from East to West in 1956-1958. Along the way he surveyed and built the Giles Meteorological Station and Aerodrome before skirting the infamous Gibson Desert. Beadell's happy nature keeps the tale bubbling along with humorous touches that make this remarkable journey one that every armchair traveller will enjoy.
