Chris Webber goes to Perrys Lookdown to talk about the themes of his book "Mountains Mishaps: Death and Misadventure in the Blue Mountains". The book's main theme is that history should not repeat itself, but if it isn't recorded, it will be forgotten, and the same incidents will happen at the same location, over and over again. A case in point is Perrys Lookdown, where four boys died in 1957 during a bushfire. The same thing happened again in 1982, and the man's body was actually found leaning against the monument for the four boys.
