Foothill Farmers: The Literature of Gippsland by Patrick Morgan gathers the region’s farming stories, poems and memoirs into one concise 141-page illustrated paperback. The volume celebrates Gippsland’s agricultural heritage, giving voice to orchardists, dairy families and horticulturalists whose words rarely reach book form.

Ideal for readers of Australian cultural history, local history buffs and students of rural studies, the anthology doubles as a readable reference and a vivid snapshot of country life. Morgan’s careful curation keeps the tone accessible to both young adults and adults curious about how landscape shapes literature.

This 2010 edition shows gentle shelf wear—cover scuffs and surface marks—yet remains tightly bound with clean, unmarked pages. A previous owner has penned a neat gift inscription on the front endpaper; no author signature is present. The book’s numerous illustrations enrich its portraits of people, animals and changing seasons.

A solid addition to any Australiana, agriculture or cultural-studies shelf, Foothill Farmers offers authentic voices from the foothills at an inviting used-book price.
