English Summary/英文概要: They came from a war torn Europe to help build one man’s dream - the Snowy Mountains Scheme. With sweat and toil they changed the course of their lives and created a new Australia. Judy Nunn continues to captivate new readers. Heritage will show you why. It was a time when refugees seized with both hands the chance for freedom; a time when people of more than seventy nations gathered beneath the Southern Cross to forge a new national identity. From war-torn Europe, they came to the mountains of Australia to realise one man’s dream, and in so doing realised their own. The mighty Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Scheme, regarded by many as the greatest engineering feat of the 20th Century, was built with pride from the sweat and blood of displaced people. They were called New Australians. One was ’Lucky’, a German Jew seeking refuge in Australia after losing his family in the horror that was known as Endlosung, ’The Final Solution’ of Hitler’s Third Reich. Another was Pietro, a young Italian immigrant in search of a new life in a strange country far from the mountains of his childhood which harboured a deadly secret. And then there was the woman from Israel, the woman with a past so steeped in horror that no matter how far she ran, she would never escape the nightmare of Auschwitz or the massacre of Deir Yassin. People of all races and creeds tunnelled through a mountain range and turned the course of a mighty river as they sought to put to rest the ghosts from the inferno of their past. From the blood of Berlin to the birth of Israel, from the Italian Alps to the Snowy Mountains, HERITAGE tells the story of the birth of new Australia in the high plains of the Monaro and the rugged peaks of The Snowy Mountains. Judy Nunn is at the height of her powers in this passionate and fast-paced tale of rebirth, struggle, sacrifice and redemption.
