Book excerpt: "Post-war Darwin was an unenviable place to find oneself. Flaming fury dunnies, squalor, disease and bomb damage made life miserable for much of the population. Those who had returned after a forced wartime exile, found all their worldly possession had been looted or vandalised. Their homes had either been bombed, compulsorily acquired by the government or were full of squatters. Repairing damaged and building a new town was painfully slow for the remainder of the 1940s, but as the 1950s progressed, signs of development increasingly appeared." Taken from back.
