BUSH SAFARI Knocking Around the Outback by Rex Ellis ~ Australia

A hard to find memoir: the author ran desert safaris in the Australian outback in the 1970's, looks like a cracker of a read and has some great photos.

Publisher's blurb: 'How do you answer the calls of nature when a mixed party is forced to spend the night in a small boat on Cooper Creek? What do you say to a couple of tourists heading for the bore in which the Prime Minister of Australia is taking a bath? Do you save your beer or your binoculars when your boat sinks in the middle of Lake Eyre? Not only humour but also danger and excitement can be part of Rex Ellis's safaris. In 1971 he led the first tourist party across the Simpson Desert a risky undertaking in this harsh environment and Rex also led some unusual desert safaris in boats. One of these, in 1974, was the only crossing of Lake Eyre from north to south.'
