Description
From the foreword:
“James Affleck’s extensive research draws together the previously published histories and the personal stories of the soldier settler families to create a permanent record which breaks new ground by detailing the history of post WWII soldier settlement of Maes-y-Porth and Injemira estates combined with a broader chronology of the area and history of the two schools: Grasmere and Cooramook. Many of the subsequent generations of the settler families have gone from the district now and are widely spread.
This is the seventh book in James’s very popular Soldier Settlement series and its fair to say that he’s developed a unique sub-genre in historical writing. Some at Warrnambool & District Historical Society are even calling him our own Barbara Cartland. He has not only put Cooramook back on the map but given the Grasmere school students a valuable addition to their school resources.”
