Knowing nothing of Australia except the lager-ad cliches of sun and surf, kangaroos and didgeridoos, Mark McCrum arrives Down Under. Hitching, flying, by Greyhound and by train, he makes his picaresque way around the vast brown land. He explores the country and meets its varied inhabitants, from royalist hippies to republican cattle- ranchers, from Perth millionaires to desert Aboriginals.
