This week's chosen book is from our friends at Wakefield Press: Then Tina Met Will -
Clementina Goldfinch and William Staker and the life journeys of their forebears, written by Cheryl Williss.
In the 1860s and 1870s, the reason for the population spread across South Australia's Gulf St Vincent and down through Yorke Peninsula was twofold - opportunity for mining and the opening up of land for farming.
These two worlds collided when Tina met Will.
This book tells the story of the author's maternal grandparents, Clementina Goldfinch and William Staker, and the life journeys of their forebears, providing some insight into significant pockets of social history in rural South Australia and the far-west mining region of New South Wales.
