The Piper's Call
註釋

 The Piper’s Call uncovers the early history of the Piper’s
River districts, including Underwood, Lalla, Karoola,
Turner’s Marsh, Bangor and other communities.
Through the eyes of an imaginary early settler we look
into the intimate lives of original families such as the
Campbells, Beesons, Rowleys, Barretts, Burkes, Crabtrees,
Hammersleys, McCarthys, McKennas, O’Kellys, Lyonses and
others.
Of particular interest are the innovative industries that
dominated the district and have since been forgotten –
the Grubb & Tyson saw mill at Hollybank in 1850s, and the
huge slate quarries at Bangor and Piper’s River in the 1870s
and 1880s. This is a must read for those fascinated by local
history, and those with roots in the area.
