| Publisher Description: This is the story of a family migrating from Mother England to Australia in 1914, establishing an Empire in the Pastoral Industry from 1920-1964 . The family settled in that unique part of Australia where they purchased the Byron Bay Meatworks in 1929 and lived through social changes when hippies settled in the hinterland, organic farming has taken over much of the previous pastoral land and where today tourists still visit to wonder at the magical scenery. |
