These days, it is difficult to believe that in the 1950s to 1980s, New Zealanders could travel to London, buy an old car or motorbike, and then drive or ride through Europe, the Middle East, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan, most of the way back to Australia and New Zealand. These were the hey-days of the magic bus, and overland safaris in beaten-up old transit vans and trucks. Young New Zealanders have always had an incurable urge to travel and see the world, and chase the ghosts of their ancestors. The 'Big OE' has become part of New Zealand culture. The stories in this collection are snapshots of such travelers' experiences, about the cultural and environmental differences, adventure, in some cases daring, hardships, courage and determination, language, championship, humor, and having a good time. The stories span 65 years, but the emphasis is on the sixties and seventies. And they are all true. We hope you enjoy them.
