Lasseter's Reef Declared Nonexistent by Buck in Australia
Mr Baby Buck, a long-time cattle station owner from The Poole in Central Australia, asserts Lasseter never found gold in the region. He notes Lasseter never visited the inland sands and claims the reef story arose from a 1943 novel about head-bearing spear tribe hunters. Buck, grey-haired and pragmatic, quips about drought and his own land as context.
