Many authors publish books by just researching. I, together with my learned colleagues, have published these series of books by both researching and going out in the field to find the historical sites and mines, this is why is takes many years to put together.
Many years and countless hours of research have been spent into this region called the “Walhalla-Woods Point Gold Belt. I have pieced together and found many mines, hut sites, hotels, old townships and lone graves. Much of this research has gone into my already published maps and books. I have ran countless expeditions in this area over the last 20 years, and continue to do so year after year. To date, I have recorded housands of historical sites.
These publications are primarily based on my finds rather than a detailed historical paper, although there is still plenty of historical information. Decades of research and ground work goes into finding all these sites, and this publication is for those who wish not to pursue such a task, but rather use this as their guide to re-visit and explore the rich history that our pioneers had created.
I have included much evidence as possible in these publications in conjunction with my expeditions in the area. I try to cover an area as thoroughly as possible, with historical documents and data, maps, photos and some great stories.
There is nothing like this series of publications out there, and I hope you take pleasure in reading them, as much as I had compiling them.
