description: Mike Mulligan and Mary Anne dug the great canals, railways and highways. They dug the foundations of skyscrapers and the landing fields for aeroplanes. But when the gasoline, diesel and electric shovels arrive, it looks like Mary would be sold for junk, unless Mike can think of a really special job.
