Sydney’s first harbour tunnel

I. P. Forster

“This is the story of man’s fight with the mighty forces of nature 100 feet below the bed of the harbour, of Australian grit and perserverance, of triumphant success in the face of danger and disaster, and the dismal forbodings of some of the most expert authorities in Australia.

It is the story of the building of the tunnel under the harbour from Longnose Point to Greenwich Point, of the 10 years history of a gallant little band of workers who, thrust back at every conceivable point, still battled on to success.”
