Local notes

South of Adelaide lies a land of plenty-a place of wine, almonds and olives, summer beach holidays and enigmatic hills. Barbara Santich has immersed herself in the lore of the McLaren Vale region, becoming a silent spectator at the picnics and ploughing matches of the nineteenth century. McLaren Vale: Sea & Vines recounts the region's history and describes its present.
