Hauling The Loads: A History Of Australia's Working Horses And Bullocks by Malcolm Kennedy, ISBN 9781876780630

> Australia Books > History Books Author: Malcolm Kennedy How did our bush pioneers transport their heavy-duty goods and equipment to the outback before the advent of goods trains and trucks and road trains? It is amazing how many young Australians in our coastal metropolises can't answer this question nowadays. This book my Malcolm Kennedy is the first book to explore in detail the vital roles played by our beasts of burden in the development of outback Australia. Kennedy begins with vivid portraits of the arrival of the first horses and cattle. He traces the routes and the incredible exploits of our early drovers, he explains the different kinds of wagons, drays and table-tops. He even discusses the pollution problems of horse-powered cities where over 200 tonnes of manure had to be cleaned up every day!
