The Camel Who Crossed Australia by French, Jackie
ISBN: 9780732285432 PUBLISHER: HarperCollins Publishers (Australia) Pty Ltd FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 288 PUBLICATION DATE: 1.08.2008 DIMENSIONS: 19.6 x 13 x 1.5 centimetres
DESCRIPTION: The story of the famous Burke and Wills expedition...as it has never been told before. The humans called him Bell Sing, but to the other camels he is known as 'He Who Spits Further Than the Wind'. Transported from the mountains and deserts of the Northwest Frontier (presentday Pakistan and Afghanistan), Bell Sing accompanies explorers Burke and Wills as they try to cross Australia from south to north. Bell Sing has never had a high opinion of humans or horses. And this expedition is the worst managed caravan he's even been in. Camel handler Dost Mahomet and soldier John King are also beginning to wonder if their leader is competent, or crazy. Bell Sing can smell water over the sandhills on the horizon...and freedom too. Can the expedition succeed? And who, if anyone, will survive? This is the gritty and true story of one of the most extraordinary and iconic events in Australia's history.
