ABOUT
What was the truth of the great land booms that swept Australia in the 1880s and 1890s?
Seventy years after the events, historian Michael Cannon began sifting through thousands of records and documents, long since filed and forgotten. He pieced together an incredible trail of corruption and roguery, rarely if ever equaled in any parliamentary democracy.
Never before had any Australian historian been able to document such unbridled greed and over-riding ambition.
Well illustrated with monochrome plates, drawings and end papers.
