Excerpt from The History of Broken Hill: Its Rise and Progress
Stretching out for miles on either side, these monsters stood plainly silhouetted against the black sky, the very semblance of a group of battleships, with that leviathan, the Big Mine, prominent in the centre.

Excerpt from The History of Broken Hill: Its Rise and Progress
From stem to stern, from every port, and high above on the funnels and masts, the glittering lights were shining. On the right stood the sister ships, The South, Block and The Central, somewhat hidden to view, with only a high light or two visible; while on the left, anchored side by side, were Block The British, The Junction, The Junction North, and far away in the distance The North.
Let him who has never witnessed this sight or noticed the marvellous resemblance depicted, ascend the Hill any night, and he will be amply repaid by the splendid panoramic view which stretches-out on either side, all brilliantly lit up with thousands of lights, forming a perfect picture for the artist's brush.
It is of these Ships, and their actions - the progress they have made - the course they have run - and the speed attained - that this book is written, but it is first needful to secure from the relics of the past their origin and discovery.
