About this book
Australia Twice Traversed, by Ernest Giles, presents a narrative compiled from the journals of five exploring expeditions into and through Central South Australia and Western Australia from 1872 to 1876.

The description of a little glen records small stone mounds at even distances, cleared paths between the stones, and a large bare flat rock at the centre of the heaps. The narrator expresses delight at moving again on the 11th of June and leaving behind a place he calls poisonous together with a fifteen-foot shaft.
