Untitled[edit]

I have included an image of Giles' grave at Coolgardie Cemetery. Because of the shadow on the grave I didn't include it on the main page.Gazjo 10:50, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Number of expeditions[edit]

The page lists four expeditions, but the "Late Life and Legacy" section says that Australia Twice Traversed: The Romance of Exploration gave an account of his five expeditions. Which is correct? Jason A. Recliner (talk) 08:43, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Jason (who must be asleep) in 2008. Giles did make five organized expeditions covering a huge area of unknown Australia. I am amending the main article. Summerdrought (talk) 21:49, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
