My book “Dovercourt: Toowong’s Hidden Treasure and Its People”

Here in the goldfields of Western Australia I've found the most unique monument to a world record that you'll ever see - the Big Camel of Coolgardie! The West Australian Goldfields is where 127 years ago a family from 3,000km to the east claimed a unique piece of history. Please follow and share the link on my profile for the story, "A Star on the Goldfields." I'm here in Kalgoorlie in the West Australian goldfields researching an Ipswich miner and rugby star from Queensland. In 1899 he was uniquely honoured twice, but not for the reason you may think. I told the whole story live on @westbremerradioipswich Former US president Herbert Hoover lived here at the historic 1897 Palace Hotel in Kalgoorlie in the West Australian goldfields. Now I'm staying here on assignment and on air live after 8am Saturday on West Bremer Radio and after 7.30am Tuesday on 4AK Darling Downs (QLD time) with two great previously untold Kalgoorlie stories. Watch this video to see inside the magnificent 129-year-old staircase and Herbert Hoover's mirror! The 1871 Queensland election riot involved a range of characters, and questions were asked about the police. Please follow the link on my profile for the story, "Little Fitz, Lost Girls, and the Warwick Riot." I love going on assignment to out there places! Here I am recently exploring the Capricorn Caves in search of the endangered Ghost Bat in a cave system in which they've lived for half a million years. This weekend I’m going to Kalgoorlie from where I’ll be live after 8am Saturday on @westbremerradioipswich , and after 7.30am Tuesday on Darling Downs radio #4AK, Brisbane time, with more incredible history out there stories! Beginning over 160 years ago, this bricklayer suffered a cruel stream of mysterious tragedies. Follow the link below to like, share and follow the story, "The Lovegrove Curse". It's a chilly and sombre trip home from the Gabba tonight, however the sight from the river of the old 1889 Customs House and the iconic 1940 Story Bridge always warm the heart. This is a 104-year-old love story of a young boy who wouldn't let geometry or geography stand between him and his true love. Please follow the link on my profile to love and share the story, "The Boy Who Cycled 150km for Love." Please follow for more.
