| Description: |
Britain did not have the vast empty spaces required to conduct the tests necessary for developing nuclear weapons. The solution was found in Australia. This book tells the story of this partnership, and includes fresh evidence about the weapons under development, the effects of the tests on participants, and the clean-up of the testing range. |
