The book covers early settlement of the Bellarine Peninsula, the early land holders, the various schools, chruches and sporting clubs that were in existence along with commercial enterprises, the railway station, various hotels, farming enterprises and so forth.  The book concludes with three walking historical tours of Drysdale you can take. Each walking tour takes approximately 90 minutes and begins and ends at the old Courhouse Museum in High Street Drysdale.
