The Depression hit hard in Australia. From 1929 and throughout the 1930s, millions were thrown out of work and dragged down to a bare subsistence while factories lay idle, and food stocks were destroyed. Depression Down Under brings us the recollections of the victims, those on the receiving end of the Depression years. In their own words, housewives, swaggies, coal miners, unionists and cane cutters describe the drama of making ends meet, life in the camps, fascism and the New Guard, and the perils of disease and childbirth.This book is also about courage and humour, and a belief that out of misfortune a better life might be won.
