Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Scuffing to covers. There is always a drought somewhere in Australia, a drought in which animals die of thirst and starvation or in which valuable crops and pastures wither. Drought losses are reflected in every pocket and bank account in the nation. The author, a fourth-generation farmer, says 'It seems as though we have grown accustomed to a wickedness and a cruelty and a financial loss that in 500 years' time will cause the history readers to gasp in astonishment. They will know us as a people who seldom cared for the huge flocks they fed on or by whom they were made richer, when those same flocks perished and starved in their millions year after year after year. This book lifts the lid on a dozen controversial drought issues, indicts the overdraft system of money lending for farmers and graziers, and is relentlessly critical of bad land management, but offers alternatives and solutions to some of the problems contained in the complex question of Australian droughts. Contents: The cost of drought Why do we have droughts Our Rivers are drying up Let them die-it's cheaper Sheep are not camels Everyman's overdraft 'Water, water everywhere . ' How big should the haystack be? Building the haystack The weathermen Is irrigation the answer? Transport and marketing The desert army The plan to beat drought.…

Jeanne McKenzie visited Australia in 1959 and 1960 and logged thousands of miles from Brisbane to Perth in her efforts to discover why we are, what we are. She talked to many people, and she asked many questions. From her impressions, she has made a friendly, trenchant survey of what she regards as our vices and virtues, a survey that pulls no punches and will set many people arguing. A survey, too, that will give a great many newcomers and intending newcomers to this country a clearer picture of what they can hope for - and of what they'll be up against.…

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Dust jacket is in good condition with scuffing to back and front. Interior and binding are still very good. Elizabeth and Derek Tribe came to live in Australia in 1956 and liked it here. After returning to the UK in 1961, many friends quizzed them about life in Australia. The interest shown by so many friends was matched by a general ignorance of the place and its people. Was the place really full of kangaroos and sheep? Was life really so lacking culture? Were the houses really just wooden bungalows lacking internal sanitation? Was it fair to the children to deprive them of an English schooling? They realised that information supplied by Australia House was too general for professionals. Even those who were anxious to come to Australia knew little about the country. So the authors put together a series of letters by 'Sheila and Jack', shedding light on Australia to help migrants prepare for their future, and the result is Postmark Australia.…
