| | Books: Colonial Consorts, by Marguerite Hancock - 14 July 2001 |
| | Victoria avoided becoming a series of ghost towns by imposing sufficient economic safeguards to ensure the development of an infrastructure. | | | At one level - looking up - the Governor's role was closer to the function of a republican President than to that of vice-regal office-bearers today. | | | It not only had social prestige; the Governor had to take hard decisions and give some direction to the Premiers and Cabinet. |
