  4. Winter Warmers: Thomas Campbell Carey – A Western Australian Story

Published 29 May 2024

Celebrate the book launch of a new biography of Thomas Campbell Carey, Bunbury resident, surveyor and politician.

Carey was a controversial figure who inspired strong loyalties and strong antagonisms in nineteenth-century Bunbury and surrounding areas. He was the victim of assault, defendant in a libel case, critic of the Forrest brothers and opponent of the pastoral 'squattocracy'.

Our presenter for this session is Rod Quin.

Join us to escape the winter weather and hear from seasoned storytellers and experts sharing the lesser-known tales of Bunbury’s histories with our Winter Warmers program.
