About this title

Synopsis

An intimate, detailed account of the rough-and-tumble gold rush existence. In a sense, this thorough history allows Nelson Point to speak for itself. Painstakingly researched contemporary diaries, journals, letters and other accounts, along with government and public statistics, provide the foundations for the volume. Twenty-six colorful chapters provide intimate details of life in Nelson Point throughout its existence. Helpful appendices include integral statistics, such as Mining Locations and excerpts from the Register of Mines and Minerals, as well as exotic artifacts of the time, such as "Cock Fighting Rules." Plus bibliography, index and 49 rare illustrations. It is a fascinating investigation of a period and a place that exemplify the rough-and-tumble gold rush experience.
