Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Chipping to book edges. Light foxing to foredges. Dust jacket has creasing at edges.
No task was more vital for Western Australia's European colonisation that a communication system to open up a vast, empty land with harsh terrain and extremes of climate.
It was tackled over the years by horse, camel, and donkey teams, by stagecoach drivers, and eventually by motor truck operators.
