Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Some wear to spine tail. Some foxing spots on foredges. Interior and binding are excellent.

This book celebrates the centenary of Wiluna, covering the period 1886-1996. It tells of the three phases of gold mining, of a vibrant town of 9,000 people at its peak, and of the reminiscences of 80 people living in the town and on pastoral properties.

Tales of drovers coming down the Canning Stock Route, policemen searching for murderers, Indigenous Australians, and lost prospectors are just some of the stories from that lonely area on the edge of the desert. (publisher blurb)
