Biography & Memoir History Australiana
Catherine King’s Ned’s Corner on the Murray turns a quiet patch of riverbank into a living chapter of Australian history. In this 2015 paperback the author traces the station’s story from Aboriginal custodianship through paddle-steamer days to modern conservation efforts. Local-history buffs and travellers planning a Murray River road trip will find vivid true stories anchored by meticulous research.
The book is clean and unmarked inside; pages are crisp, binding tight, and no dog-eared corners interrupt the read. Light shelf scuffs on the cover are the only sign of its previous life in a smoke-free home. A solid, ready-to-read copy for collectors of regional Australian history.
Young adults and adults curious about Indigenous heritage, pastoral life, or Ned Kelly–era folklore will discover fresh perspectives without wading through academic jargon. Perfect for gifting or tucking into a caravan glovebox before heading to Ned’s Corner itself.
