- Summary:
-
"Concealed in the scrub of Western Creek State Forest, twenty kilometres from Millmerran in South East Queensland, Australia, hundreds of Italian internees were incarcerated in makeshift camps during World War II. No official records of the internment camps have ever been found. The dedicated members of the Millmerran & District Historical Society, with valuable support from the Millmerran Lion's Club, have set out to uncover this hidden history. Giving voice to the untold stories of life in the camps, it is an important record of a key era in our local and national past. The book includes a guided tour from Millmerran to Western Creek State Forest with a fold-out Map. It covers Indigenous history, early history of Turallin, Glenferrie Station, the Rabbit Fence, Western Creek Station, Western Creek State Forest, and flora and fauna."--Back cover.
