I've Been Everywhere, Man – A Journey to All the Places in Australia's Favourite Song

"I've been to Tullamore, Seymour, Lismore, Mooloolaba…"

We've all sung along to the classic Aussie anthem — but how many can say they've actually been everywhere?

Over several years and more than 30,000 kilometres, Peter C. Harris set out to visit every single location named in Geoff Mack's legendary song. From Adelong to Yeerongpilly, this rollicking road trip takes you through the red dirt of the outback, down winding coastal roads, and into the heart of Australia's lesser-known places.

Told with warmth, wit and a bit of cheek, I've Been Everywhere, Man isn't your usual travel guide. It's a pub yarn disguised as a memoir — full of odd encounters, quirky histories, and reflections from the road. Each chapter is a short standalone story, letting you dip in and out like you're flipping through a well-worn road atlas.

So grab a cold one, chuck on the seatbelt, and join Peter (and his tri-colour Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Lucy) as they chase a song across the wide brown land.
