Book excerpt: The Maher Cup was a rugby league (originally rugby union) challenge cup contested between teams from the New South Wales South West Slopes and northern Riverina between 1920 and 1971. The towns involved were Cootamundra, Tumut, Gundagai, Temora, West Wyalong, Young, Harden-Murrumburrah, Junee, and Barmedman. Cowra, Grenfell, Boorowa and Wagga came and went. Nine other places made a challenge or two including teams drawn from Gibsonvale tin miners and Wyangala Dam construction workers. This is book about rugby league that seeks a broader remit, one that enables reflection on the life and times of the people of the region. It is an attempt to view a region's history through the prism of football. The objectives are to provide value to family historians, by listing every man recorded as having played Maher Cup football; to sports historians through description of each of the 729 matches played; to social historians, by examining contemporary attitudes and activities through half of century of change, from the horse and buggy to networked television; and general readers by attempting to capture the drama that football generated in these small towns.

Book excerpt: A book of stories about the amazing and often forgotten working-class heroes that gave Rugby League its reputation as a hard hitting egaletarian game.This is the story of when rugby league was a bruising tribal contest with local rivalries, muddy country grounds were packed with fans and the corporate juggernaut of today's game was a distant dream. It's a look at the days when footballers had 'real jobs', smoked cigarettes at half time and had a beer together after training. Days when your footy boots were a treasured possession - and rules and regulations barely mattered.Read about how legends were forged in steel by men who refused to countenance defeat. When back then, before fulltime professionalism, you might buy your bread or rabbits from someone you barracked for on Saturday; an uncommon hero of Rugby League.

Download or read book Flooded Forest and Desert Creek written by Matthew Colloff and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2014-08-11 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The river red gum has the most widespread natural distribution of Eucalyptus in Australia, forming extensive forests and woodlands in south-eastern Australia and providing the structural and functional elements of important floodplain and wetland ecosystems. Along ephemeral creeks in the arid Centre it exists as narrow corridors, providing vital refugia for biodiversity. The tree has played a central role in the tension between economy, society and environment and has been the subject of enquiries over its conservation, use and management. Despite this, we know remarkably little about the ecology and life history of the river red gum: its longevity; how deep its roots go; what proportion of its seedlings survive to adulthood; and the diversity of organisms associated with it. More recently we have begun to move from a culture of exploitation of river red gum forests and woodlands to one of conservation and sustainable use. In Flooded Forest and Desert Creek, the author traces this shift through the rise of a collective environmental consciousness, in part articulated through the depiction of river red gums and inland floodplains in art, literature and the media.

Book excerpt: Ray 'Rabbits' Warren is the legendary voice of Australian sports commentary. People tell him he must have drunk a bottle of scotch and smoked a packet of cigarettes every day to have the voice that he has. That's not the case – at least, not anymore . . . The son of a railway worker, Ray placed his first bet on a horse called Playboy at the age of just six, and won. A lifelong love of the track – and the punt – was born. During his remarkable broadcasting career, which has now spanned almost five decades, Ray has called three Melbourne Cups, Commonwealth and Olympic Games swimming, and countless rugby league matches alongside his mates Fatty, Sterlo and Gus. Here, for the first time, Ray reveals the man behind the microphone. He speaks of the great highs and devastating lows of his career and life in the same way he calls every sporting event: with great passion, colour and candour. Shortlisted, 2015 Australian Book Industry Awards ‘When it comes to rugby league commentary, there is little dispute that Ray Warren is the best in the business ... I know you’ll enjoy his story.’ —Alan Jones AO ‘It’s not the vision that sells this game. It’s not just the amazing feats of these mighty players. It’s the way Ray Warren calls the action. The sense of theatre he brings to the call. Ray makes the game better. He brings it to life in lounge rooms all over the country. Ray Warren is the voice of rugby league.’ —Phil Gould ‘I loved rugby league growing up in Sydney ... and you can’t talk rugby league without talking Ray Warren. They are synonymous.’ —Hugh Jackman ‘There are enough well-rehearsed yarns about the footy, boozing, betting, “colourful” identities, misadventures and bending rules in the workplace to keep a reader turning pages.’ —Weekend Australian Ray ‘Rabbits’ Warren is one of the most experienced sports broadcasters in Australia. Andrew Webster is the Chief Sports Writer for the Sydney Morning Herald.

Book excerpt: "How do we imagine and engage with the agricultural heartlands of Australia? In the city and the bush, how do we see ourselves in relation to the farmland that nourishes us all? Heartland explores the cultural and historical foundations of ecological change and disorder across the southwest slopes of New South Wales, a rich and productive agricultural region. Rural places are today calling everyone, George Main suggests, into relationships of mutual care."--BOOK JACKET.

Book excerpt: In March 2008, Rugby League celebrates 100 years of history in this country. Long known as the greatest game of all it is the dominant code in New South Wales and Queensland, and in recent years it has gained a foothold in Victoria, and beyond. This book is the story of the game over those years: the great eras and the great games; the great players from Dally Messenger to Andrew Johns; the always passionate (and sometimes bitter) rivalry of the State of Origin games; the overseas tours; and in recent years, the Super League turmoil, through to the present era. And it looks ahead to increased competition from other football codes It is a popular yet authoritative account, aimed at the general reader, not simply the dedicated fan.
