The Meat Game tells for the first
time the fascinating story of the Gepps Cross abattoirs and saleyard
complex, from its utopian concept through its years of growth
and operation to its eventual ruin as a victim of competing interests.
A comprehensive and abundantly illustrated
history, including first-hand accounts and previously unpublished
photographs, The Meat Game is for anyone connected with
the industry or for those who take an intelligent interest in
the origin of their food.
