Connecting the Continent
What does it take to connect a continent for communication? In these days of satellite transmissions, it does not seem like such a huge task. Go back in time, and across the continent of Australia, to 1870 to connect the continent together with an overland telegraph line. This website traces the route, the stories, and the settlements that grew along its path.
