Description: This is Bondi Pioneer by Milton Milligan. Published by the author in 2016. Card covers with 325 pages. Illustrated. Post $10.95 in Australia. An inspiring true story of an 11-year-old boy's rise from the tragic memories and utter despair of his years in an English Workhouse.His dreams and hope for a better life in the fledgeling Colony of Sydney, New South Wales, became a reality when in 1833 he emigrated with his wife and three small children. There he opened his business as a high-class Saddler and Shoe and Boot Maker in George Street. Through his extraordinary skills as a shrewd businessman, he was able to become a wealthy, influential entrepreneur. Over the next 58 years, with the help of his large and devoted family, he was able to make a huge contribution, in business, local government, as well as socially and spiritually as a prominent church leader. Not only was his influence felt in the Eastern Suburbs, in particular Waverley and Bondi, where he lived, but all of Sydney and parts of New South Wales. Joseph Dickson's story has an important place in the history of our early development and as such deserves to be told in its entirety.
