This is a recording of a public lecture that was delivered live at the Eureka Centre on 06/07/2023. Robyn Annear joins us once again, this time to discuss the unbelievable claims that the Ballarat Goldfields were free from rats.

Talking History is a forum for the sharing of research into the history of the Ballarat region, with a special focus on the colonial period. Talks are held from March to November on the first Thursday of each month at 5.30pm.
