Return to Roxby Downs

John Showers first went to Roxby Downs when it was a lonely, isolated sheep station a long day's drive on rough bush tracks from Port Augusta and civilisation. Thirty years later, as a civil engineer with Western Mining Corporation, he returned and was intimately involved in establishing the infrastructure for the development of the Olympic Dam uranium mine and the new township of Roxby Downs. Return to Roxby Downs covers his participation in both these periods.
