by Hector MacQuarrie (Author)

Little Wheels is a humorous account of a road trip from Sydney to Cape York and Thursday Island by Hector MacQuarrie and Richard Mathews, his mechanic mate, in 1927, over "roads" that had never been motored before. In those days, all roads stopped at Cooktown, so the 960k north to Cape York was a first by any motorist - encountering quicksand, turkey-brush, melon-holes, wide creeks, little water - lonely telegraphists, outpost traders, Aboriginals and life in remote wild places. By the author of Round the World in a Baby Austin.

Hector MacQuarrie tells an interesting story of triumph over difficulties. It is the history of a trip made by the author and a friend from Sydney to Cape York, a car of the "baby pattern being used. The daring motorists did things that were thought to be impossible, stuck to their self-imposed task with pertinacity, and so succeeded. The book is written in a racy style, and the interest never flags as the reader travels in spirit with the two determined New Zealanders and their "baby". - The Queenslander, January 1930
