Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Light foxing to foredges. Dust jacket has light creasing at edges and at spine. Interior and binding are still very good.

The Shire of Nungarin is located in the Wheatbelt region of WA. It is situated about 40 kilometres north of Merredin.

The Gold Rush was a very exciting event in the history of Western Australia. It was after this optimistic period that Western Australia settled down to the task of building a prosperous wheat-producing state. Nungarin played its part in ensuring that WA was recognised around the world as an important producer of wheat.

This book traces the development of Nungarin from the beginnings of pastoral expansion through to the gold rush era. It records the laborious efforts that culminated in the building of a Wheatbelt.

Around The Rock is a chronicle of the events that brought about agricultural development in this one area, and recording these events also serves as a tribute to all the hard-working European settlers who helped to establish the Wheatbelt region. (book flap)
