Summary:
A comprehensive and meticulously researched history of Inverell’s formative years, this volume spans from early European settlement in 1827 to the dawn of the 1920s. Elizabeth Wiedemann explores the region’s growth, the rise of the tin and diamond mining industries, municipal development, and the stories of those who shaped the community.

With references to First Nations cultural sites and the broader economic and social development of northern New South Wales, this is an essential resource for researchers, genealogists, and those with family ties to the area.

This richly detailed account not only chronicles Inverell's colonial and industrial past but also highlights its cultural significance, including documented Indigenous connections. A valuable piece for collectors of regional Australian history or those tracing heritage in the Northern Tablelands.
