What did it take to build the mighty Warragamba Dam?

More than a mountain of concrete ...

* Gambling and fights, and ladies of the night

* Class distinction, rorts and wrangles

* The infamous six o'clock swill

* Death, danger and hard yakka

* Dirt, floods, fire and sweat

* Hardship suffered by the pioneer workforce and their families

This is one man's reminiscences of his experiences working at the Warragamba Dam construction site in the late

1940's and through the 1950's. Recounting his experiences with colloquial vigour, Red Morgan entertains with

innumerable anecdotes of great times and mateship had by a hard working, hard playing workforce.

Born into a poor working class family in Swansea, South Wales, and having spent most of his life in Australia,

Red Morgan captures here the rough and tumble side of a vital episode in Australia's history.

If you think the book "They're a Weird Mob" or "Paint your Wagon" funny then you must read this book.

This is a true life story of the building of the mighty Warragamba Dam.
