*The River's Bounty* chronicles the remarkable story of Barmera, a town in South Australia that transformed from scrubland into a flourishing irrigation area in just 30 years. This book pays tribute to the pioneers, the returned servicemen, and the strong community spirit that shaped Barmera into one of the richest Upper Murray settlements. It details the impact of irrigation, pioneered by the Chaffey brothers, on the region, and explores the unique characteristics of Barmera, particularly its close-knit community forged through war service and shared agricultural livelihoods. Discover the tale of vision, hard work, and comradeship that built Barmera, and celebrate the people who turned a wilderness into a model of prosperity.
