520    One of the most critical environmental challenges facing 
       both Californians and Australians in the 1860s involved 
       the aftermath of the gold rushes. Settlers on both 
       continents faced the disruptive impacts of mining, grazing,
       and agriculture; in response to these challenges, 
       environmental reformers attempted to remake the natural 
       environment into an idealized garden landscape. As this 
       cutting-edge history shows, an important result of this 
       nineteenth-century effort to "renovate" nature was a far-
       reaching exchange of ideas between the United States - 
       especially in California - and Australia. Ian Tyrrell 
       demonstrates how Californians and Australians shared 
       plants, insects, personnel, technology, and dreams, 
       creating a system of environmental exchange that 
       transcended national and natural boundaries. True Gardens 
       of the Gods traces a new nineteenth-century environmental 
       sensibility that emerged from the collision of European 
       expansion with these frontier environments.
