About this listen

 Bad Ground is the real story of miners Todd Russell and Brant Webb and their deliverance from entombment in the depths of the Beaconsfield hard-rock mine. But the seismic event that trapped them affected the close-knit community just as profoundly. Family, friends, fellow miners and rescuers: this is also the story of those who worked desperately against the clock and against all odds to reach the men below. Of those who held vigil, of those who grieved, and of those who never stopped believing. Tony Wright was there covering the story as it unfolded, and experienced first-hand the making of an Australian legend.©2006 Tony Wright (P)2007 Bolinda Publishing Political Science Politics & Government United States

What the critics say

"His account of their ordeal is not a fast cut-and-paste exploitative job. Wright gets into the drama's nitty-gritty ... good writing." (The Courier Mail)
"With his expert storytelling Humphrey Bower introduces just a hint of a swagger as he describes the struggles of the rough-edged miners of Beaconsfield. Bower's narration makes it sound as if he's right there at the scene of the disaster." (AudioFile Magazine)
