This is the story of the days of hardy transport riders and stage-coaches, overcoming all difficulties and getting to the journey's end. It tells of the manner that it was done; the adventures by the way; illicit diamond buying anf highway robberies; the life on the diamond and gold fields of those days; this is the story of Alexander Gibson. A great read, truly full of the "flavour" of the pioneering times.
