Helen Antonio Crake has traced the geology, early Aboriginal inhabitants and the European explorers over the years through to the pioneering settlers and to the second half of the 20th century. She has also captured the humour and optimism of the early days and produced a very readable account of how the District evolved. (Foreword)
