The Victorian Gold Fields 1852-3
Shipping
Michael Cannon’s illustrated hardcover The Victorian Gold Fields 1852-3 drops readers onto the tumultuous diggings that reshaped colonial Australia. First edition 1982, scarce in the original dust jacket.
Only 100 pages yet packed with period images and eyewitness detail, this concise picture book suits collectors of Australiana, mining history and Victorian-era art culture. Adults and hobbyists alike relish its vivid snapshot of gold-rush life.
The sturdy volume remains good and tight; the protected dust jacket shows only fine scuffing, while a faint crease to one leaf and the odd tiny page-edge fleck are noted for accuracy. No inscriptions, ex-library stamps or bookplate—just clean antiquarian charm ready for display or reference.
Add this John Currey first printing to your Australian history shelf before it disappears like the precious metal it chronicles.
