Description: Journey deep into the red heart of New South Wales with this compelling account of one of the outback's most vital arterial routes. From the corridor's earliest days as a rough bush track to the engineering feats required to tame its shifting soils, unpredictable floods and vast distances, this book uncovers the stories buried beneath the bitumen. Meet the towns that cling to its edges, the flora and fauna that shape its verges, and the workers whose sweat and ingenuity carved a lifeline through the mulga. An essential read for anyone fascinated by the roads that stitch remote Australia together.
