Wiluna - "Edge of the Desert" celebrates the Centenary of Wiluna, and covers the period 1886-1996.

It tells of the three phases of gold mining; of a vibrant town of 9,000 people at its peak; of the reminiscences of 80 people living in the town and on pastoral properties.

Tales of drovers coming down the Canning Stock Route; policemen searching for murderers; aboriginals and lost prospectors are just some the stories from that lonely area on the edge of the desert.
