Down Argent Street - The Story Of Broken Hill
By George Farwell
Drawings by Roy Dalgarno
Published by F.H. Johnston Publishing Co Pty Ltd: Sydney 1948 1st Edition

"Broken Hill is a city in the far west region of outback New South Wales, Australia. An inland mining city near the border with South Australia in the Barrier Range. It is 315 m (1,033 ft) above sea level, with a hot desert climate, and an average rainfall of 235 mm (9.3 in). The town is prominent in Australia's mining, industrial relations and economic history after the discovery of silver ore led to the opening of various mines, thus establishing Broken Hill's recognition as a prosperous mining town well into the 1990s. Despite experiencing a slowing economic situation into the late 1990s and 2000s, Broken Hill itself was listed on the National Heritage List in 2015 and remains Australia's longest running mining town."
