Description
SECOND HAND
The Gladstone Colony: An Unwritten Chapter Of Australian History is an historical book written by James Francis Hogan. The book explores the history of the Gladstone Colony, which was a proposed colony in the northern region of Australia in the late 1800s. Hogan delves into the political and economic factors that led to the proposed establishment of the colony, as well as the social and cultural implications of such a venture. The book also examines the role of prominent figures such as William Ewart Gladstone, after whom the colony was named, in the creation and eventual abandonment of the project. Through extensive research and analysis, Hogan sheds light on a little-known aspect of Australian history and provides a fascinating glimpse into the country’s colonial past.
