The history of Commonwealth Engineering spans some 70 years. Comeng Vol. 2 traces the company's activities from 1955 to 1966. The range of activities was diverse from curtain walling for high rise office buildings to the use of glass-reinforced plastic in road, rail and general applications. The book is given life by the personal accounts of those who worked in the plants in NSW, Qld, Vic and WA. Their memories and anecdotes illuminate this history of Australia's industrial and manufacturing development.
