Gold! Hidden Stories of Australia's Past, Book 5
Gold discoveries in Australia created an unprecedented population explosion and with it came crime and lawlessness.
In Blood Gold Marji Hill, author of more than 70 publications, tells:
About law and order on the goldfields.
How gold was a target for theft.
How the Native Police were used to enforce law and order.
How with the expanding frontier the Native Police were used to "disperse" First Nations people from their lands to make way for colonisation.
How the Native Police were a symbol of white colonial attitudes towards First Nations people.
About Australia's first Chinese bushranger, and
Stories of some female bushrangers.
If you relish the uncovering of hidden stories, iconic episodes or truth-telling to do with Australia's past, then this beautifully illustrated book and the others in the series are for you.
