SUBTERRANIAN SYDNEY: THE REAL UNDERWORLD OF SYDNEY TOWN
Kennedy Brian and Barbara
ISBN: 0730101673
rEED 1986 Reprint
8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Soft Cover Very Good condition. "Sydney's Tank Stream and Busby's Bore are well-known, but not so well-known is the great honeycomb of other tunnels that spreads for literally tens of kilometres beneath the city streets. Of course, many of these underground ways carry the essential services vital to one of the world's major cities, but there are also a surprising number that have been used, or are still being used, for such purposes as mining and defence. There are also those which have remained well-kept secrets for many years. And then there are those that will probably forever remain a mystery. This book takes you on a tour of all the tunnels of below-ground Sydney." Very Good
