Description
SECONDHAND BOOK
More than a century ago Bendigo was the goal of thousands of miners intent on winning their fortunes from the rich gold-bearing soil of the area. The last of the great mines closed in 1954, but the City still abounds with many reminders of this golden age.
Today, some of the former industries, and other relics associated with the goldmining period, are taking on a new importance in the life of the City as they attract an ever-growing stream of visitors from all parts of Australia, and overseas.
In Bendigo: The Golden Age Retraced Jan Neil, with her delightful sketches and informative narrative, has compiled a record of lasting interest. The text, while containing much background information about each of the featured attractions, also gives precise street directions for reaching each point of interest. In addition, an easy to read map, numbered in sequence with the text, is to be found inside the front and rear covers.
