Beyond Leichhardt by Glen McLaren is a richly illustrated Australian non-fiction adventure that charts the bold expeditions launched after the mysterious disappearance of explorer Ludwig Leichhardt. McLaren blends biography, bushcraft and engineering history to show how 19th-century surveyors, stockmen and scientists pushed past the outer limits of colonial settlement.
Readers who relish true stories of survival, outback exploration and environmental discovery will appreciate the 316-page paperback’s detailed maps and images. Fremantle Arts Centre Press published this 2000 edition for adults and curious young adults seeking a vivid window on Australia’s frontier past.
The book is clean and tightly bound with no writing, dog-ears or stuck pages; a smoke-free home has preserved the crisp text block. Light foxing and a small watermark appear only on the closed page edges, leaving the reading pages themselves fresh and inviting.
