520 _a"Straight as a gunbarrell, they bulldozed their way through saltbush, sand-dunes, desert and salt lakes to make Australia's most incredible road - the Gunbarrell Highway ... From 1956 to 1958, Len Beadell and his team made the first road to cross Central Australia from east to west, 1500 kilometres from the Alice Springs road to ... 850 kilometres north of Kalgoorlie ... Beadell, using astronomical observations, would survey up to 400 of the projected road entirely alone ... Returning to his construction team, he would supervise operations as the road was pushed slowly forward"--Publisher's description.
