Right now, I am readingg a fascinating book called "Wild Colonial Boys" by Frank Clune (Pacific books) It seems to be a genuine history. Packed with forgotten Australian history and folk-lore, all about those bush rangers and their exploits. They certainly were a colourful lot!
I have never been to Ballarat, or even NSW, but recently I was involved in a gold mining project at Lake Cowal, and in the book he mentions all the gold rushes in that area. So Thats why they are building a gold processing plant!
