Most of the photos in the 'First Overland' book were taken by Antony Barrington-Brown ('BB'), and not all editions of the book have the same set of pictures. Other members of the team also took photos, but from the hundreds taken, only small numbers were published.
But now Adam Bennett (who repatriated the remains of SNX 891, got ‘Oxford’ back on the road, and re-united the old Land-Rover with remaining team members) has gathered together a comprehensive selection of photos — some never published before — in this 118-page spiral-bound book. It's an unparalleled record of one of the most iconic journeys of the 20th Century, and a must for any Land-Rover enthusiast.
Lots of people have often thought that it would be great if they could see more of the expedition’s photographic record — but that would likely have remained as just an idea if Adam hadn’t persuaded expedition members to dig out old photos.
