Goldfields of Queensland -Gympie Edition
(ref#:13570)
By W Lees and the Department of Mines
Includes a lift out map of leases
The Publishers in conjunction with the Queensland Department of Mines produced a series of goldfield histories circa 1900. The Queensland Government reproduced facsimile copies of some of the editions in more recent times. The original book and map were published in 1899 by W.Lees, and the reprint in 1986 by the Queensland Department of Mines.
The text is a quite a detailed account of the growth of mining and the town of Gympie from its origins until 1899 with many photographs of the era.
