Jeff Lambert, the principal author and editor of 'The Traveston Story' now brings you

A book wholly set up and designed at Traveston, Queensland.

This hardcover edition is well illustrated and in addition contains 31 maps within its 173 pages. The author takes his readers with him on a journey back in time along the tracks leading to the first major gold discovery in the then new-found colony of Queensland.

To prepare you for the journey and to appreciate the atmosphere of the era leading to the gold strike, the author commences the journey with the establishment of tracks in what was then the northern limits of settlement in the Colony of New South Wales - Moreton Bay.

From there pathways are many and varied, including the maritime efforts to capture the trade to the goldfield, the Cobb & Co service to the goldfield and the coach service displacement by the more efficient and economical steam train service into the Gold City.

To bring further interest to the story, the associated history leading to the establishment of Queensland and the subsequent history relevant to the gold rush, is intertwined with the pathway definement, bringing with it the reasoning and justification of major road and rail infrastructure positioning in the south east of the Colony.
