Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pages are sunned. Binding is still very good. Light foxing to foredges. Dust jacket is also in good condition for its age, with a few tears to top edge and at spine. Dust jacket is protected with cover.

The dramatic and colourful story of how a waterless wasteland was transformed into Australia's most fertile garden. It is the story of the Murray Valley, now a sparkling land jewelled with orchards and vineyards. This was made possible by the faith and courage of a few hopeful people, by new scientific methods that developed cultivation and made great advances in combating pests and diseases, and by irrigation.
