This publication commemorates the centenary of local government in the district and outlines the history since settlement to 1982 of the region managed by the Concord Municipality in 1983. It contains a number of useful photographs and maps of the area that are the property of the Council and citizens that would normally be difficult to access.

Local and regional histories often include the names of community leaders such as business people, local government officers and elected members. This particular publication names:

• Early settlers in the district
• Mayors of Concord

Local and regional histories provide an insight into the past circumstances and environment of small communities. They give the historian an understanding of how people of the time lived their day-to-day lives. They are of particular interest to family historians who may have ancestors living in the particular community as while they may find no mention of particular names, they will certainly come across issues and events that they certainly experienced.
