Still in the bush

"We're looking for someone to start some sort of rocket range - or something." Len Beadell cheerfully accepted the challenge ... and thus began his involvement in what was to become a multi-billion dollar weapons testing project in the Australian outback - on the Woomera Rocket Range ... Beadell and his team built roads, laid out town sites and undertook an enormous survey programme in order to prepare a test launching area in one of the most isolated parts of the world ... [His] descriptions of the countryside, the adventures the team experienced, and the Australian bush characters they encountered are by turns illuminating and hilarious. His high-spirited account of the work that had to be done 'before they called it Woomera' makes vivid and entertaining reading"--Publisher's description
