Description 264 pages ; 20 cm Series My Australian story My Australian story Summary George thinks Mr McGinness and Mr Fysh are too cocky and too flaming young. But I reckon if you've been to war, flown flying machines and shot guns at other flying machines...then you can't be too young for anything. Jack McLaren's dream is to be an automobile mechanic. When his uncle offers him an apprenticeship in Longreach, Jack is soon on the first automobile ever to travel the Gult Track from Longreach to Katherine.
