Photographic
summary of the African Caravan (PDF)
Upon returning from Madison, WI I began
looking at pictures and scans. This is a sampling that tells the
story of the Wally Byam African Caravan in 1959. Most of the
pictures come from the estate of Helen Byam Schwamborn. The very
last picture was taken by Brad Norgaard. He has done a bang-up
job on making an accurate model of the African Scout Truck.
Really nice Brad.
