Morning Post (London) - "Perhaps the greatest of Australia's real life epics."
Otago Daily Times (NZ) - "One almost finds it difficult to believe that the story is modern and true."
Sydney Mail - "One of the most graphic, most poignant, and most absorbingly interesting tales that the chronicles of Australian exploration - those treasure stores of dramatic adventure - have ever revealed."
The Herald (Melbourne) - "A true story that for sheer excitement, thrills, and sustained suspense, cannot be surpassed by even the most imaginative novelist."
