Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Scratch to spine tail and small tear to top back cover, now protected with book tape. Slight skew to spine. Previous owners stamp on inside page. Some foxing to right foredge. Interior and binding are very good.

On 19 March 1907, Modesto Varischetti was trapped by water in a mine shaft at Bonnievale in Western Australia. Nine days later he was rescued.

This book tells how the mine was flooded, how Modesto responded to the ordeal, and of the efforts to save him. It also tells of the relations between the Aussies and the Italians of the goldfields. (publisher blurb)
