In 1841, 175 years ago, the first Germans migrant to settle permanently in Western Australia was naturalised as a British subject. Fredrick Waldock wanted to demonstrate his commitment to his chosen place of residence; the place he and his loved ones felt home and to which he felt a new sense of allegiance. Thousand of Germans and German speakers have followed in his footsteps - male and female, young and old, rich and poor - all united by hopes and the pursuit of a future that the world add a new; Western Australia, component to their sense of identity . This book is dedicated to all those who appreciate diversity and the cultural richness it entails, and who have, like so many of hose in this volume; proved their appetite for risk-taking and new beginning.
