简介：Simon's adventure begins in the magnificent "red centre" of the continent and continues through South Australia, passing through the extraordinary Indian Pacific Railway until reaching the west coast city of Perth. On the way, he joins an Australian rancher in the parched outback and participates in a spectacular camel round-up. This mad adventure involves specially adapted off-road vehicles and a chopper, part of an ongoing effort to stop the damaging spread of up to a million feral camels across the country. Simon also passes through Australia's wine country and visits the lucrative tuna fishing city of Port Lincoln, where he investigates the impact these trades are having on the environment. In Western Australia, he joins a 21st century gold rush - part of the resource boom that has made Australia one of the richest countries in the world. Finally, in Perth, Simon discovers a full scale British invasion. Working in a mine or driving a lorry can bring a salary of a hundred thousand pounds a year, as evidenced when Simon meets a former binman from Hull who is now living the dream, with a beautiful house in the sun, private pool and his very own boat.…
