By Des Cowley.
Cost: $30.00 [plus postage & handling]

The humble dairy cow has been a vital component of the settlement of this country. But who laid down the dairying foundations in this area?
How did the industry rise from a few homestead cows to an everyday part of our staple diet?
What has been the effect of deregulation of the industry in NSW?
For the first time a history of dairying from Hay to Yass, Tumbarumba to Young; from the first fleet to the present day has been clearly presented in this extensively researched book.
Dairying from Foundations to Deregulation has been published by the Wagga Wagga and District Historical Society Inc. It contains 200 pages including just on 180 photos. Also includes a comprehensive index, map covered and much detail about the close association with the dairy industry.
“While this excellent book concentrates on the developments in NSW, from my experience it is typical of all States”
