North Melbourne: Australian Scholarly Publishing. 2011. MINT - a NEW copy. Illustrated with Black and White Photographs. 258 pages. The First World War soldier settlement schemes placed settlers on unviable, over-capitalised holdings ultimately forcing a high percentage to walk off their blocks … The Victorian Returned Services League set about helping to frame a settlement scheme which would avoid the mistakes of the past. It is a record of an outstanding and successful scheme which reflects credit upon its administrators and the ex-service settlers who made the most of the opportunities presented to them. This book records this successful partnership of settler and government. It is a story of recognition by society of a duty to help those who served in the War. Equally it is a story of the continuing growth of Victoria and the struggle to make productive a harsh country. Robust, professional packaging and tracking provided for all parcels. . New.
