Michael Terry F.R.G.S., F.R.A.I., F.R.C.I. was the last major explorer of the Australian interior. In the 1920s and 1930s, Terry undertook no less than fourteen expeditions through central and northern Australia by truck and later by camel. Michael Terry's expeditions opened up much of the previously untraversed country in Australia's "dead heart" and "top end." It is for this reason that the books describing his various expeditions are much sought-after by modern Australian outback 4WD travellers. Through a Land of Promise describes in terrific detail the 1925 expedition from Darwin in the Northern Territory to Broome in Western Australia in Terry's typical Boys Own style. Out of print for decades, this new edition of Through a Land of Promise is an exact replica in paperback of the original 1927 edition. The page count, tables of contents, illustrations, appendices and index are exactly as they appeared in that first edition.
