Reminiscences of Queensland, 1862-1869

"Reminiscences of Queensland, 1862-1869" by William Henry Corfield is a personal story about moving to a new country long ago. It's like a diary of his time in Queensland, Australia, during the 1800s, where Corfield shares what it was like to leave England and start a new life in the outback. He talks about his boat trip on the "City of Brisbane," introducing the people he traveled with and his first look at Australia. Once there, he learns how to live in the bush, meets Aboriginal people, and deals with the tough work on his uncle's farm, painting a picture of what life was like way back then.
