Edges of pages are slightly soiled. Pages are lightly tanned and lightly creased. Short gift inscription in ink. There really is no other town like Alice Springs. This book is the first full account of its unique development. Although the book is meticulous in its historical accuracy, the characters who come to life on its pages are larger and more colourful than those presented in fiction. Facinating historical photos recreate visually the changing face of the centre. In the text no effort has been spared to ensure that the whole story is told, by exploiting every vauable source of information. Everyone with an interest in the Centre will need this book - and those who are concerned with the broader history of Australia and the world, will be fascinated by it's reflection in the life and progress of such a remarkable place.
