In a 1968 issue of Australian Geographical Studies, an examination was made of a system of local mobility and land appraisal on a pioneer sheep station in western Victoria, and it was suggested that this type of approach might prove fruitful for analyses elsewhere (24). A broader study is now presented, embodying a further consideration of these themes for the whole of the colony during the "Squatting Age". In addition a series of maps is offered to illustrate pastoral expansion in Victoria. -- from the foreword by J. M. Powell reader in geography, Monash University.. First Edition. Paperback.
