Wooden Wonders Victoria's Timber Bridges by Don Chambers, published by Hyland House Publishing Pty Limited in 2006.
At once a narrative of timber bridges history, an exploration of the development of road and rail transport, a showcase of Australian design ingenuity, and a regional Victorian tour guide. While showcasing the ingenuity of Australian design and workmanship and the amazing durability of native hardwoods, it also captures something of the beauty of simple structures that have been hewn from their landscape. This book tells the story of familiar structures that still, perhaps, remain a characteristic part of Victoria's, cultural landscape.
A lovely addition to your coffee table or bookshelf, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves history.
