Notes

Durban is a local history of a rural settlement within the boundaries of the Municipality of Swan Valley West in west-central Manitoba. It opens with an account of the area before permanent settlement, then traces the arrival of early homesteaders, recording their origins, land locations, and occupations.

Later chapters examine the development of municipal government, the district's schools, including Robson, Durban, Central Valley, and Pretoria, the village of Durban, local grain handling, and community activities.
