McKinlay River Expeditions and Northern Discoveries
An irregular 1960s North Queensland Register piece reviews John McKinlay’s 1860s exploration routes from the Diamantina to Hampton River, naming rivers and stations he touched and noting later misnaming by others. It mixes colonial survey detail with local fundraising notes and a bridge tournament report for charity.
