This book creatively explores the gold rushes in the Tasman World
through an examination of the Otago gold rushes, revealing how
transnational connections and local social and natural environments
shaped colonial identities. The first monograph-length study on the
Otago gold rushes and their place in the histories of British and
Irish migration, it increases our understanding of the British
World by grounding transnational networks in the local ecologies,
geologies and weather patterns which shaped local social structures
and profoundly affected migrants' relationships to loved ones in
Britain, Ireland and elsewhere.
