When the young and impressionable sons and daughters of rural Australia were promised power and riches beyond their wildest dreams by an older sadistic boss, they become a highly manipulated and dangerous group of drug dealers. Intent on distributing their own brand of ice and justice into regional communities, they were prepared to attack anyone or anything that stood in their way. As the syndicate spirals out of control, their wildest dreams become their worst nightmares. Victorian detectives tracked and pursued the syndicate around the state in an attempt to stop the violence, collect evidence and dismantle the group - a tightly controlled group of outlaws from whom no one is safe, not even woman and children. Ice Nation is an intimate blow-by-blow account by the lead investigating officer of police efforts to bring the syndicate to justice. It is a snapshot of the epidemic that is taking over our country and a horrifying picture of the destruction of family and friends.

How we keep food cold while the house stays warm. Only when the power goes off and food spoils do we truly appreciate how much we rely on refrigerators and freezers. In Refrigeration Nation, Jonathan Rees explores the innovative methods and gadgets that Americans have invented to keep perishable food cold—from cutting river and lake ice and shipping it to consumers for use in their iceboxes to the development of electrically powered equipment that ushered in a new age of convenience and health. As much a history of successful business practices as a history of technology, this book illustrates how refrigeration has changed the everyday lives of Americans and why it remains so important today. Beginning with the natural ice industry in 1806, Rees considers a variety of factors that drove the industry, including the point and product of consumption, issues of transportation, and technological advances. Rees also shows that how we obtain and preserve perishable food is related to our changing relationship with the natural world.
