This is a guide to a substantive collection of records assembled by Dewar Wilson Goode, a prominent pastoralist and conservationist who played a considerable role in soil conservation and management of farming land in Australia. Dewar Goode's records document his contribution to nature preservation and land management, his broad community service and the environmental cause over eight decades. This collection is invaluable, not only in terms of its rich historical content, but to anyone committed to the development of a 'land use ethic'. There can be few archival collections where the past can be seen to have such an obvious and critical bearing on our future. [Details]
