About this listen
In this chapter:
The convict who tried a ‘fool’s gold’ trick – twice;
The real gold rushes and the birth of the swaggie;
The arrival of the Chinese goes off like fireworks, so here comes the White Australia Policy;
Grog and mayhem on the goldfields;
Duck for cover! It’s the bushrangers;
Defiance, death, and Justice – the Eureka Stockade;
… And to finish, a delightful interview I had with an old bloke who in the late 1890’s used to tramp up through the snow, past the gold mining camps, to the top of Australia’s highest peak carrying the mail.
