Read by Sally Cook

Walking Towards Gold tells the story of the author's pioneer colonist forebears who arrived in newly formed Adelaide , South Australia from Portsmouth, in June 1838 and how thirteen years later three of them walked 580 miles from Adelaide to the Victorian goldfields pushing a wheelbarrow.. There are intrepid accounts and interesting descriptions of early Adelaide and life on the Victorian goldfields. This is part of the Downer family's story
