Through blood, sweat and tears, three generations of the Morant family created an agricultural wonder in fruit block farming and irrigation at the State Heritage listed property known as Bangalore, in Renmark, South Australia. This is a tale told by the grandson of one of South Australia's brave pioneers, Charles Morant, who on 7 December 1891 bought one of the first plots of land to be sold by The Chaffey Brothers. The book threads historical facts with family folklore and first-hand memories recounted by the author, Peter Loveday, who was born at Bangalore during World War 1, and spent many formative years inhaling the extraordinary work-ethic, resourcefulness, resilience and bloody-mindedness required to battle drought, plagues, floods and cyclones to produce some of Australia's finest crops.
