Jeff Johnson, self-confessed 'bushie' of no fixed abode, decided almost on a whim to walk across Australia, south to north, to raise funds for charity. Spurred on by the memory of his deaf-blind niece, whose death was the catalyst for this extraordinary undertaking, he battles hoons, the fear of an attack by dingoes and the vastness of the interior to achieve his aim. Surviving on what he could carry on his back, and without back-up, he walked 2,500 km in 151 days. This is the story of his walk, the outback characters he met along the way and, of course, the untamed grandeur of inland Australia.
