Early Pioneers in and around Clunes by May Townsend (Second Hand Book)

SECOND HAND BOOK – EX-LIBRARY

From the foreword, by David Townsend:

“Whether they be rich or poor, good or bad, history remembers only a few and, as time marches by, even that few becomes even fewer without works such as this.

Although it is impossible to record all the names and feats of the early pioneers, this “labour of love” has involved my mother in many, many hours of seemingly endless cross-checking and, in compilation, she has lived, breathed and even dreamt of the early pioneer days. As far as is possible, this book is an accurate record of early settlers in Clunes and district, according to existing relics and living memory.

Due to their foresight, we owe much to all the early Australian pioneers, for each had their part in creating that which we take so much for granted today – a free society and a tradition of unstinting support for those in need.”
