Slightest of edge wear to cover. Near new. An enormous amount of anecdotal and factual research information, on the activities which took place in the Far North of Queensland in the war years. Much of the work concentrates on the years 1941-43 during which intense, large work and personel movement in the North was suddenly necessary. The impact of that work, and the almost total commitment of civilian life in the war effort, on the inhabitants of the area was immense, in a way which Australians more removed from the arena of conflict are still unaware.
