Download or read book Gold Fever written by Geoff Hocking and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold Fever tells the story of the heady days following the discovery of gold in Australia. When, in 1851, the focus of the world suddenly turned to the hills, gullies and swirling creeks of New South Wales and Victoria as 'new chums' from all over the world rushed to be rich. This beautifully detailed work includes a narrative that captures the colourful characters and wittily observed sketches of everyday goldfields life. Never out of print since first published in 2001, now updated and in a new format. Geoff Hocking is an author, designer, artist and lecturer. He is the author of many books on Australian history, including Wild Colonial Boys and Under the Southern Cross. He lives in the Victoria's Castlemaine, part of Victoria's golden triangle.

Download or read book A Global History of Gold Rushes written by Benjamin Mountford and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing set the world in motion like gold. Between the discovery of California placer gold in 1848 and the rush to Alaska fifty years later, the search for the precious yellow metal accelerated worldwide circulations of people, goods, capital, and technologies. A Global History of Gold Rushes brings together historians of the United States, Africa, Australasia, and the Pacific World to tell the rich story of these nineteenth century gold rushes from a global perspective. Gold was central to the growth of capitalism: it whetted the appetites of empire builders, mobilized the integration of global markets and economies, profoundly affected the environment, and transformed large-scale migration patterns. Together these essays tell the story of fifty years that changed the world.

Download or read book Not Your Usual Gold Stories written by Peter Macinnis and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-06-06 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Australian children are given an account of the chase for gold in Australia that runs like this: Nobody knew there was gold in Australia, Edward Hammond Hargraves discovered gold in New South Wales in 1851, and then the rushes began.This is false history. The first claim of a 'gold mine' was a fraud in 1788; the first real gold find was in 1824; the first working gold mine was in South Australia in 1843; a shepherd, Hugh M'Gregor regularly sold gold in Sydney in the 1840s; the first gold rush was in Victoria in 1849, but the authorities choked it off; and Hargraves never discovered gold.What Hargraves did was to provoke a gold rush that could not be stopped, by declaring that there was gold over wide area, stretching from the site of the 1824 find to where M'Gregor was collecting gold.This book details all of those matters, and many more, explaining the psychology of gold rushes, the technicalities of finding gold, and the true costs of gold fever. While it mainly deals with the Australian situation, there are many comparisons with overseas situations, from Prague, the Middle East and the Americas: this is a world history with a strong Australian bias.It is also a starting point for scholars, because the sources are meticulously recorded, and at last count, there were 236 web links, because in this increasingly internet-crazy world, people want those links to books and contemporary newspaper accounts.

The authors gained much of their data from old newspapers, letters and diaries of the times, unearthing history on the region and the men themselves that has never before been revealed."--Provided by publisher.
