Reviews
On Apr 12 2020, a reader said:
Zane Grey does for Australia what he did for the American Southwest, and this is: Make it the place to be! The master of descriptive prose has given the uninformed reader a journey, a travelogue, of what it would be like to cross the Australian Outback. And in spite of the period of history it is set, a suspect the trip would be much the same today. Through the eyes of two American cowboys, Australia comes alive for the reader--the flora, the fauna, the heat, the dust, the water, or lack there of, the strange and the exotic are all displayed. There are rustlers, and stampedes, and romance as well, or it wouldn't be Zane Grey. This book was first printed during the Second World War when there were paper shortages, so this version is not the complete one. Wilderness Trek has been reprinted in its entirety under the title of The Great Trek by Five Star; but this version is very good, and these WJB editions will last a life time. A five star recommendation.
