Although accounts of overlanding expeditions had been publishedpreviously, Browne points out in his Preface that a specific guide was still lacking: The object of this book is to give a true and graphic account of the trade of S2OverlandingS3 as carried out in the Australian colonies. The author has tried to set before the reader a fair sketch of the S2OverlanderS3 himself, his occupation, his difficulties, and the people he employs however small its merits, it may at any rate obtain some credit for novelty, as he believes it to be a subject as yet never touched upon. S3 Brownes book, a practical guide to herding cattle and sheep through rough terrain in Australia, is filled with valuable advice for adverse local conditions. Overlanding in Australia covers all aspects of the trade, from dingo attacks to the laws of branding and ownership of stock. The author discusses the use of dogs in controlling stock on the move, pastures in Australia, surviving drought and special problems posed by crossing rivers and losing sheep in the bush. Of special interest is a discussion of (sometimes tense) relations between squatters and stockmen moving cattle across the landscape.
