George Higinbotham was a highly influential politician in colonial Victoria. One of his contemporaries described him as a man of 'dash and daring' who 'won from privilege and class ground that they have never since been able to recover.' Even today debate rages about his character and his legacy. Some see him as a visionary who fought for responsible government free of Colonial Office interference and obstruction by an undemocratically elected Legislative Council. Others see him as a flawed character whose legacy was turmoil. As a journalist with the Melbourne Herald, Higinbotham influenced the course of events as agitation mounted on the goldfields and culminated in the battle at Eureka. A year afterwards, in the storm that erupted following Governor Hotham's claim to unconstitutional powers, he led a press campaign of opposition. Later, as Attorney General of Victoria, his daring leadership of the Legislative Assembly's struggle against the Legislative Council led to constitutional crises in 1865 and 1867. And as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, his public donation to the strike fund during the Great Maritime Strike of 1892 created controversy, even outrage. Despite humiliations and defeats, he championed democracy and the public interest as he saw it.
Set to climax in the rubble of the 1905 San Francisco earthquake, Treasure and Trouble Therewith (1917) provides a definitive portrait of early 20th-century California and those who lived there. Using the booming West, Bonner dissects American greed consuming the hopeful pilgrims trying to make a place for themselves in the Golden State.
I have written this memoir of my children's (Kelly's and Scott's) courageous wars against cancer, for all the countless people who love Scott and Kelly. They fought their wars so valiantly Those of you who read this who have cancer or love people with cancer, may also shed tears as you recognize the suffering, the prayers for healing, the love, the desperation, as cancer sufferers literally disintegrate before our eyes and we, to some degree, disintegrate with them. I have written this memoir as a special tribute to my children; however, I am praying for all cancer warriors.
