AUSTRALIANA Exploration
Eyre’s expedition sought to discover ‘the unpenitrated mysterious and unknown centre of Australia’. Stokes retraced his steps and photographed the terrain that he trecked through.

Lavishly illustrated with landscape photographs of the regions through which Eyre travelled. Includes a bibliography. The author is a photographer and writer whose other publications include ‘To the Inland Sea.’. First Edition.
