Express to Hindustan

Express to Hindustan

1929 • 308 pages

This volume seeks to tell the story of an attempt by three Australians, under the author's leadership, to reach Australia by motor car over a route in which the sea travel was reduced to 800 miles.
To synchronize their departure with the most suitable weather conditions - the vital factor for success - was impossible owing to personal reasons, and it was necessary that they leave London in the heart of winter and endeavor to reach India before the heat of mid-summer and the monsoonal rains.
