Ten thousand miles overland across some of the worst terrain in the world, in a 50-year old open car without back-up vehicles or supporting network.

James Wheildon and Paul Davies were the first team of the six entries in the 1988 London to Sydney Vintage Rally to arrive at the famous Opera House, in an amazing 84 days.

This is their account of a daring route across the Sahara Desert, the mighty Congo River and jungles of Central Africa, to the golden beaches of Mombasa in East Africa, and thence by ship to Australia.

This is a true "BOY'S OWN" adventure story, a must for every would-be adventurer, schoolboy and everyone who enjoys a simply ripping tale.

£9.99 plus p&p
