The Story of Burke and Wills is a historical book written by Michael Joseph Watson in 1911.

The book features sketches and essays that provide a detailed account of the expedition, including the challenges faced by the explorers, their interactions with the indigenous people, and their ultimate demise due to starvation and dehydration.
