Len Beadell: Blast the Bush - Maralinga, Aust A-bomb site

Back page information:-

"When the time came to explore part of Australia's outback for a weapons testing programme, Len Beadell was the natural choice to select and help prepare the site for a historic detonation in the lonely Australian back country.

With the road building exploits described in TOO LONG IN THE BUSH behind him, Beadell was the perfect choice for the task of selecting and preparing the location for the weapons testing trials.With his characteristic humour and embellished with his own cartoons, Beadell tells the story of the people who worked on the project — in some cases it was as much a trial of them as it was of any weapon — and he recounts the sequence of events that led up to the gigantic explosion that was to BLAST THE BUSH.

LEN BEADELL, who has been called the last of the true Australian explorers, was born on a farm at West Pennant Hills, NSW, in 1923. As a surveyor and road builder he worked all over the Australian outback from Arnhem Land to the Gibson Desert. In 1958 he was awarded the British Empire Medal for his work in building the Gunbarrel Highway across Central Australia. In 1987 he was made a Fellow of the Institute of Engineering and Mining Surveyors (Aust.) and the following year was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia. In his lifetime, Len Beadell wrote six best-selling books on Australia's bush and outback."

212 pages plus b/w photos; medium-sized paperback. This book is an ex library book with a hard vinyl adhesive cover.  There is some dark spatters on a couple of pages.  Also along the top edge it has been slightly effected by liquid (noticed on the last 70 approx pages.)  Darkening of pages towards the edges.
