Description: Deep in the heart of the Australian outback lies a tiny town with an outsized legend. This richly detailed portrait traces Birdsville from its ancient Indigenous roots and colonial exploration through the forging of the famous Birdsville Track, the rise of its iconic sandstone landmarks, and the raucous energy of its world-renowned annual races. Journey across shifting dunes to Big Red and the edge of the Simpson Desert, and discover how a remote settlement of just a hundred souls has come to occupy such a mighty place in the national imagination.
