Overview
Amazing true tales of travel and adventure from Australia's master storyteller
Trucks, trains, boats and planes - welcome to a treasury of unsung heroes and extraordinary journeys that have shaped Australia's history. From the resilience of the truckers crossing the Nullarbor, to daring aviation pioneers who turned the skies into a new frontier, the bravery of Australia's sailors to Australia's great age of rail, Great Australian Odysseys is a rich tapestry of adventure and ingenuity, with a good dose of Aussie laughs.
Journey through tales of hardy truckers braving isolation, mechanical and political battles. Navigate the high seas with our first submariners' record-breaking journeys and daring rescues of the shipwrecked and marooned. Relive the golden age of rail with evocative stories celebrating Australia's railway heritage, from Mark Twain 'Down Under' to Ben Chifley's rail legacy. Soar through the skies with aviation legends like Smithy, Bert Hinkler, and Frances Birtles, whose courage and innovation transformed how we travel.
With humor, heartbreak and a deep respect for history, bestselling chronicler of Australia Jim Haynes brings to life the pioneers, larrikins and legends who define our country's unique spirit and who dared to dream big and journey across our vast continent.
