[Review] Below These Mountains : The Adventures of John Henry Mills - Pioneer Photographer and Gold Miner Lyall Ford , 2002 single work review
— Appears in: Queensland Review , May vol. 9 no. 1 2002; (p. 99-100)
— Review of Below These Mountains : The Adventures of John Henry Mills : Pioneer Photographer and Gold Miner Lyall Ford , 2001 single work biography 'In Below These Mountains, Lyall Ford - great-grandson of John Henry and Mary Ann Louisa Mills - has extensively researched and meticulously sifted through the 'jigsaw puzzle' pieces of his Mills family ancestry to put together a very readable and thoroughly researched account of both the Mills family and the establishment and eventual demise of the Queensland gold mining township of Mount Britton in Mackay's hinterland. Although this book is ostensibly designed as a detailed record of the Mills family, it is not a laborious read aimed only at the family members: it also fleshes out the social situations of the era.'
