A Different Earth: Cornish Pioneer Miners to Australia
Max C. S. Beck
When the potato blight hits Cornwall in 1847, Jane Dunstan rescues her large family, first by the long suffocating passage to South Australia, then 100 miles by bullock wagon to Burra's copper mines and finally by a 350-mile trek to the goldfields of Victoria. A heroic story of suffering, hope and survival.
