Walkabout is a novel written by James Vance Marshall (a pseudonym for Donald G. Payne), first published in 1959 as The Children. [1] It is about two children, a teenage sister and her younger brother, who get lost in the Australian Outback and are helped by an Indigenous Australian teenage boy on his walkabout.
For his next work, Payne borrowed the pseudonym James Vance Marshall from the name of the Australian outback traveller and writer James Vance Marshall (1887–1964), whose writings provided much of the source material for what would become his most famous work, the 1959 novel Walkabout. Walkabout was originally published as The Children.
