Peter Fitzsimons has written about many Australian greats over his career, but this time he may have peaked.

Sir Hubert Wilkins was many things - an explorer, naturalist, photographer, war hero, aviator, spy, submariner and daredevil – and his exceptional life is celebrated in Peter's new book.

Peter joined Harvey to talk about the research and the many interesting tales he uncovered as he dug into Sir Wilkin's adventure filled history.
