ABOUT
Incidents and interviews on a leisurely journey by Air from Australia to Britain.
Clune set out on New Year’s Day, 1947, on what he calls a Marco Polo marathon, modern style. In his own breezy fashion, he tells how he took the long journey from Sydney to London by air, but in easy stages – stopping long enough in each of the countries he visited to discover something of interest about it.
His trip took him into 31 countries: Indonesia, Singapore, Malaya, India, Pakistan, Malta, Sicily, Corsica and France, just to name a few. Clune took black coffee with the Shaikh of Bahrein; and when he was invited to a sumptuous feast (without knives or forks) in Afghanistan.
Includes monochrome images and maps.
Maps on end papers.
