The chronicle of the turf in Australia is woven into the very fabric of our history, and this fascinating book brings that story vividly to life. It takes us from the carnival atmosphere to the first race meeting in 1810, which was organised to distract and amuse disgruntled settlers, through the years of war and peace, metrication and emancipation to the tensions and turmoil of modern times.
