Forest and Field - A History of Ross Creek 1840-1990
by Joan E. Hunt
First published 1990 by Jim Crow Press, Daylesford. ISBN 0 7316 9440 6.
"Ross Creek is unique among the rural settlements to the south-west of Ballarat. It was not founded directly on the gold industry, it has never been a township, and its population has always been relatively small and stable. The aim of this book is to give interested readers a general view of the role which the forest workers and farming families of Ross Creek played in the fortunes of the gold-mining towns of Ballarat and Sebastopol, and south-west to Cambrian Hill, Napoleons, Smythesdale and Scarsdale."
