Kerry Pink presents a compelling account of the miners, pioneers, and communities who carved a livelihood from the wild and mineral-rich landscape of Tasmania's West Coast. The narrative details the booming mining era — from the discovery of rich copper and tin deposits to the rise and fall of legendary towns like Queenstown, Zeehan, and Strahan — painting a vivid portrait of hardship, ingenuity, and frontier spirit. Grounded in meticulous research, the work illustrates how this isolated region shaped Tasmanian identity and left an indelible mark on Australian industrial heritage. A must-read for anyone passionate about Australian history and the pioneering spirit that defined a nation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956164800731,"sku":"2026100006007-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d7f063c8-d3e4-4f8c-a8ac-8a1fbdb62694.png?v=1783498538","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006007-secondhand-the-tasmanian-west-coast-story","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
