Field of Thunder is a work of historical fiction and high adventure based primarily on the exploits of Lewis Lasseter, a prospector and explorer who in the early 1930s held Australia and much of the world enthralled. He had recounted the tale of having discovered a fabulous reef of near- pure gold in the central australian desert some thirty years before and thereby caught the attention of a nation. Day by day the media of the period followed the progress of the best equipped expedition ever to enter central australia as it sought to relocate the reef. The unfolding gloom of the Great Depression was briefly forgotten in favour of Lasseter, the Robin Hood of the day, as he and the expedition sought to relocate this fabulous treasure.
