Surveyor Francis Peter MacCabe The Man Behind the Corner
This book records an important part of Australia’s surveying history and demonstrates the sacrifices and hardships that early surveyors had to endure in exploring and mapping our great country.
This book not only records the life and work of Surveyor Francis Peter MacCabe, but also provides vivid examples of the experiences that our early surveyors had to endure in opening up this vast land for the pioneers to follow, and the current generations to enjoy.
This is the story of a man who overcame the difficulties of a new and foreign land which no amount of training could have prepared him for. Francis MacCabe was a true explorer and early pioneer, a man who led from the front, demonstrating great leadership of his working parties and a strong belief in rewarding good work.
