Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastoral Australia tells the story of the expansion of Australia's pastoral industry, how it drove European settlement and involved Aboriginal people in the new settler society. The rural life that once saw Australia 'ride on the sheep's back' is no longer what defines us, yet it is largely our history as a pastoral nation that has endured in heritage places and which is embedded in our self-image as Australians. The challenges of sustaining a pastoral industry in Australia make a compelling story of their own. Developing livestock breeds able to prosper in the Australian environment was an ongoing challenge, as was getting wool and meat to market. Many stock routes, wool stores, abattoirs, wharf facilities, railways, roads, and river and ocean transport systems that were developed to link the pastoral interior with the urban and market infrastructure still survive. Windmills, fences, homesteads, shearing sheds, bores, stock yards, travelling stock routes, bush roads and railheads all changed the look of the country. These features of our landscape form an important part of our heritage. They are symbols of a pastoral Australia, and of the foundations of our national identity, which will endure long into the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North Australian Pastoral Company is one of Australia’s largest and oldest private cattle companies. It began in the 1877 rush to take up land in the Northern Territory. A vast area of the Barkly Tableland was leased by a partnership of five men: Queenslanders William Collins, William Forrest and Sir Thomas McIlwraith, and Englishmen Sir William Ingram and John Warner. Today, the family-based company which evolved from the partnership still holds the greater part of that original land as Alexandria Station – the biggest cattle station in the Northern Territory. Descendent of three original partners still hold shares in the NAP company. The title – You Can’t Make it Rain – derives form a poignant comment of Phillip Forrest, managing director and chairman of NAP, shortly before he resignation in 1936. Forrest wrote. ‘I have done my best over a long trying period, but I cannot make it rain.’ The comment is a telling reminder of the over-riding importance of water for pastoralists, and of the often grim struggle for survival in that industry. You Can’t Make It Rain is the story of one notable survivor.

This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering study describes the quest of Baptists in the different colonies (later states) to develop their identity as Australians and Baptists. The first comprehensive history of Baptists in Australia with a national focus, the Baptist story is traced from their beginnings in 1831 with the first baptisms in Woolloomooloo Bay (Sydney) in 1832 down to modern times. Changes and continuities, achievements and failures are carefully analyzed and related to the wider social, political and cultural context.The first volume covers the period from 1831 until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 and shows how a strong sense of becoming an Australian Church shaped much of their development from the various types of British Baptists who began the movement in the new nation. What it meant to be an Australian Baptist is described using denominational newspapers, church records and personal memoirs.

Download or read book Two Generations of Country Life written by Roy Walter Tindale and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Roy Tindale's story of the development of the cattle industry in Central Queensland. Retired grazier, pastoral company manager and land agent, in this book he shares the knowledge, the memories and the wisdom he has carried with him into his nineties. While his family's association with country life goes back to the early 19th century, the tale begins when his father drove cattle into Central Queensland in 1890. Two Generations of Country Life: A century of pastoral development in Central Queensland reflects the joys, hardships and struggles of life on the land throughout the changing times of the 20th century. It recounts floods and droughts, the changing seasons, human triumph and tragedy, the social life of rural communities and more isolated properties, and the impact of modern forms of communication on "the bush". The influence and effects of two world wars on country folk, their properties, workers and markets are presented from a grazing perspective, while the nature and practice of local and state Queensland politics are shrewdly observed and described. It's well-illustrated too, drawing on family photos of places, folk and events dating back to the early 20th century. The "Aussie yarn", the dry humour of the bush and the toughness of the men and women of the bush are apparent in Roy's stories of characters and events from his past. So too is the bushman's love of the plants and animals of the countryside, formed from close experience and patient observation over many years. This is a story for everyone who shares a love of the Queensland bush and its people. It is dedicated to the men and women of "the bush", who worked long and hard to build the nation we inherit today.
