History of the Deloraine Municipality | J.R. Skemp | 1964 [USED – SC – Out of Print]

J.R. Skemp's history of the Deloraine municipality — the town and surrounding district in the Meander Valley of northern Tasmania — covering the area from the earliest European settlement through to the time of publication in 1964.

Deloraine was established as a town in 1842 on the Meander River between Launceston and the Western Tiers, and served as the service centre for the surrounding farmland and the communities of the Meander Valley. Skemp documents the founding families, the district's development and the community institutions that shaped the municipality.

A compact but specific piece of local history — the kind of publication that isn't reprinted and becomes genuinely hard to find over time.
