Description
The Plains of Irmaroo
Author: Esther Murray
Hard cover with dust jacket, good condition. Signed copy. First edition.
The Plains of Irmaroo by Esther Murray is a local history that chronicles the early years of European settlement in the Werribee district of Victoria, Australia. Drawing on her own roots in the area—her family were long-time market gardeners—the author explores the development of the region through its landscapes, waterways, homesteads, inns, sporting events, and notable local features, providing rich detail and anecdotes that bring the district’s pioneering past to life. The book combines social history with personal insight, offering readers both an informative account of how the plains around Werribee were transformed and a vivid sense of the people and places that shaped its community.
