Events leading to the attack in the pre-dawn of 3 December 1854

Eureka Stockade: A Pictorial History documents the events leading up to the attack  by the combined forces of the 12^th and 40^th Regiments of the British Army , the goldfields police and troopers, on the angry diggers who had joined together to defend themselves beneath the flag of the Southern Cross, in Australia’s first and only armed insurrection by free men.

Short-lived though the rebellion was, the results of the Eureka Stockade were far-reaching – giving birth to the desire for true democracy in the emerging Australian nation.
