47 p.; 23 cmnon-fictionThe story of Gilwell in Victoria is deeply tied to the history of Scouting. Gilwell Park in Victoria was inspired by Gilwell in England, which was donated to the Chief Scout of the World, Baden-Powell, in 1919 as a training ground for Scout Leaders. In Victoria, the first Wood Badge course was held in 1925, and the property near Gembrook was later donated to the Scout Association, becoming a permanent training camp. The park has evolved over time, with landmarks like the Hoadley Gates and Somers Walk commemorating significant figures and events in Scouting history.

BOUND FOLDER, BLACK CARDBOARD COVER 152 PAGESnon-fictionFred Cahir tells the story about the magnitude of Aboriginal involvement on the Victorian goldfields in the middle of the nineteenth century. The first history of Aboriginal–white interaction on the Victorian goldfields, Black Gold offers new insights on one of the great epochs in Australian and world history—the gold story. In vivid detail it describes how Aboriginal people often figured significantly in the search for gold and documents the devastating social impact of gold mining on Victorian Aboriginal communities. It reveals the complexity of their involvement from passive presence, to active discovery, to shunning the goldfields. This detailed examination of Aboriginal people on the goldfields of Victoria provides striking evidence which demonstrates that Aboriginal people participated in gold mining and interacted with non-Aboriginal people in a range of hitherto neglected ways. Running through this book are themes of Aboriginal empowerment, identity, integration, resistance, social disruption and communication.
