The East Coasters - Lois Nyman - Bog

The major standard history of the first wave of settlers who arrived in Tasmania's East Coast between 1821 and 1831 and who developed the wide area.

First published in 1990 but long unavailable, it follows with humour and historical authenticity the pioneering struggles of the first settlers, their interaction with each other, their encounters with Aborigines and bushrangers, and the family histories of the leading settlers.
