Steam in the Forest by Maurice R H Southcombe

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

The South West timber industry relied upon steam engines of many types. Mills, whims, trains, haulers, traction engines, were all part of the bush scene, now looked upon in a romantic light.

This is the story of steam in the forests, the men, the animals, and the forests by an old timberman. Maurice Southcombe died in 2000. (publisher blurb)
