AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Following a preamble (set during an evening bush gathering in the Creswick - Daylesford area of the Victorian diggings), the tale of 'The Heir of Malverton' is told.

Notes

  • It appears that only the first instalment of 'The Heir of Masterton' was published. The story bears similarities to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
