Harry Hodge’s The Hill End Story is a cornerstone work on the history of Hill End and Tambaroora, two of the most famous gold fields in New South Wales.

Packed with maps, tables, and illustrations, this book preserves the stories of miners, pioneers, and the communities that grew around the goldfields.
