Biography & Memoir History Australiana

Wool Past the Winning Post by Heather B Ronald is a richly illustrated first-edition hardcover that traces the sweeping story of Australia’s pioneering Chirnside family and their wool empire. Published in 1978, this scarce Australian history title blends biography, pastoral life and cultural studies into one collectible volume.

The book arrives in tidy, gently-read condition: pages are clean and bright, with only a single light corner crease and a tiny edge spot to note. A previous owner removed the front blank flyleaf, leaving no writing or bookplates; it comes from a smoke-free home and feels ready for the shelf.

Ideal for collectors of Australiana, family-history enthusiasts or anyone drawn to the wool industry that shaped the nation, this vintage hardcover delivers true stories of station life, commerce and legacy. First editions in such sound shape are increasingly hard to source, making this copy a worthwhile find.
