Book Description
The Soldier Settlement Commission purchased 23,373 acres of Tarrone Station from the Boyd Brothers in February 1947, fully stocked with sheep, cattle and horses. The first wool clip was sufficient to cover the cost. The first portion of fourteen holdings was subdivided in December 1947 and occupied in May 1948. The second group occupied their blocks in October 1949, nine others arrived in April 1952, and the final ten settlers arrived in 1957, making a total of 48 farms. The homestead area was sold by tender in March 1958. There was soon a thriving community with tennis and social clubs and Recreation Reserve Committee. By the 1060s Tarrone was carrying approximately 60,000 sheep and 3,000 head of cattle. By 1983 Tarrone was in the hands of a new generation. There remained nine of the original settlers with four others continuing farming through sons of the original settlers.

Book Description
This occasional paper is a concise overview of the history of the US Army's involvement along the Mexican border and offers a fundamental understanding of problems associated with such a mission. Furthermore, it demonstrates how the historic themes addressed disapproving public reaction, Mexican governmental instability, and insufficient US military personnel to effectively secure the expansive boundary are still prevalent today.

The Limits of Hope

Pages : 344
Book Description
Over 10,000 men, women, and children were placed on farms in Australia during the 1920s as part of the soldier plan after World War II. Of the 12,000 families settled in Victoria, a majority failed to establish themselves, and the cost of this ill-conceived plan was enormous, both to the people and the state. This innovative social history focuses on the experiences of the settlers as they struggled against appalling conditions to make ends meet and maintain their dignity.
