This was abridged from a much longer book, now in public domain. Back cover text:
Ellen Clacy was 20 years old when she and her brother travelled from England to the Australian goldfields in 1852. This was at the start of the gold rush, when thousands of people from around the world were arriving at the gold diggings.
Ellen went back to England and wrote a book about her adventures, which became a huge success. It's easy to understand why, as it's a fascinating story. Level for Australian learners is EAL4 (upper intermediate). International level B1 or B2. Also suitable for anyone studying Australian history, especially the history of Victoria/The Goldfields, and wanting an 'easy read'.
