[QUOTE="argyle, post: 23125, member: 1008"] David, the author of gold and ghosts, has stated they were taken out of print solely due to the fact of them actually costing him money to keep having them printed. The sale price at the time mixed with the actual sales being made didn't add up. Many years later everyone thought he withdrew them due to his stance on Round-Up being used in Aus. Which was probably his own fault anyway. Nice bloke, bit of a stirrer. I've always hated both Tully's and Stone's maps and found them totally inaccurate. Far better off with the 1:25 000 Topographic maps. Just follow the water courses and you'll find very set of diggings and reef workings above them that aren't even on Tully's and Stone's maps.
