This is the audio version of Len Beadell's first and most widely acclaimed book, Too Long in the Bush.
It is the true story of the construction of the first ever road to cross the centre of Australia - The Gunbarrel Highway stretching 1,500km. With typical wit and a warm bush humour Lennie describes the experiences of his party and the almost impossible conditions of life in the desert.
As the story unfolds the author's happy nature keeps the tale of the Gunbarrel Road Construction Party's adventures bubbling with humorous touches that make the amazing journey one that every bush and armchair traveller will enjoy.
