In love with the landscape, intrigued by the region's history and concerned that much of that early history was being lost, Peter Luders set out to record as much of it as was possible. Driven in part by a desire to do this for posterity and in part by the hope that, by charting such enormous fluctuations in the history of society, agriculture and veterinary practice, some small insight into the future direction in which our nation may be headed can perhaps be gleaned- by contemplating its past triumphs and errors.
