Jennings Visit To Gold Fields Wynaad
Book Name: Visit To Gold Fields Wynaad
Author: Jennings
Published: 1881
The writer of the following pages had no idea whatever that, upon his return from a recent official visit to the goldfields, he would he called upon to write a book. Possibly, had he anticipated such a task, this volume would have been somewhat different. The information afforded' might have been more general, and touched the interests, operations, and prospects of other companies besides those upon which he had been instructed to report.
This little volume is, therefore, no more than a slight sketch of his own personal experiences. Enlivened with engravings from drawings made upon the spot, its object is to familiarize the English reader with the country in which such great results will, in all probability, soon be achieved. It will, perhaps, be interesting, hereafter, as a record of what the district once was, before gold had so completely changed it -as California, Colorado, and Australia have been changed.
