(uk) Rolf Boldwood

109K0

The article "Melbourne Memoirs" can help you get to know this city better from its beginnings. As a witness and participant of this history, Rolf Boldwood has more say in this history than obscure and abstract historical materials. Born in London, England, his family moved to Australia in 1840 and settled in Melbourne. He worked as a sheep farmer and later as an inspector of gold mines, during which he continued to write. Rather than witnessing the development and changes of Melbourne, it is better to say that Melbourne entrusted him with his frivolous youth. Therefore, he vividly and detailedly told the story of Melbourne during that period based on his own life experiences.
