The Squatter's Bairn (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Squatter's Bairn Readers of this tale will turn in vain to the map of South Australia in order to find Bannockburn, Waramba, or Eaulieu: but they will discover an ever increasing number of places where shrewd and patriotic men of the type of Alexander Grant are winning, in rich profusion, "the kindly fruits of the earth" from deep soil which was once regarded as irresponsive to culture, and everywhere the cultivator's efforts are aided and seconded by enlightened and broad-minded legislation. I desire to record my sense of indebtedness to the South Australian Government for facilities of travel and investigation freely and liberally placed at my disposal.
