In this SA History Festival event, join us for an exciting in-person chat with adventurer, journalist and author, Rosemary Cadden.Journalist and adventurer Rosemary Cadden discusses how following the tracks of fellow Scot, explorer John McDouall Stuart, evolved into a book that takes the reader on her road trip through the centre of Australia, providing insight into how land and lifestyles have changed over the past 150 years.
In the late 1850s and early 1860, John McDouall Stuart led six expeditions into the Australian interior – culminating with an epic crossing – and return – on his final journey. Stuart was a slight, small man, a social misfit and heavy drinker. Yet he would go on to become perhaps the greatest explorer of the Australian interior in history.
Copies of the book are available for sale at this event.
Bookings are essential.

The City of Charles Sturt would like to acknowledge the land we occupy today is the traditional lands of the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country. We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the greater Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.
