Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has stamped inside half-title page and imprint, otherwise this book would be very good condition.

The Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Scheme, constructed between 1949 and 1974, still ranks as one of the world's great engineering feats. Two-thirds of the 100,000 workers were immigrants, newly arrived from over 40 countries in war-weary Europe.

This is their story and the story of a new, post-war, multi-cultural Australia. This book is based on 400 interviews of people who were in some way concerned with the Scheme.
