Description

Local historian Garry Richardson captures the history of European settlement in St Helens on Tasmania's East Coast, recording the establishment of the tin mining, farming, boat building and fishing industries. This book tells the stories of the hardships endured by the early European settlers in the area and the significant changes to the town over the decades as the mining industry waned and eventually ended.
