AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Set in the Monaro (Maneroo) highlands, three miners determine to find the source of the gold discovered in the mountains - locating it in a narrow strip of land they call the Pinnacle Gate. A dream of rich jewels, caverns of precious stones and gold, gnomes etc. proves itself to be just that ... a dream. Slight but generally well told. (PB)
