Fact can be stranger, and sometimes even more unlikely, than the wildest tales of fiction - and this is especially true of the life of William Roadknight (1792 - 1862). At the time of his death, in 1862, he had risen from poverty and despair to become one of the most wealthy pastoralists and philanthropists of his era. A man of extraordinary compassion, resilience, patience, and courage - the unlikely fruits from a series of horrific ordeals that William would have never consciously chosen, nor wished upon his worst enemies.Join with me in discovering 'The Crucible Years' of William Roadknight's life. Four incredible years from 1820 - 1824 where he faced so many ordeals - trials and tribulations, that would break anyone, and indeed they broke him too.It was in these 'Crucible Years' where William learned the life lessons that enabled his future success. Life lessons about hardship and victimisation, about success and failure, and about resilience and courage. Life lessons that are incredibly relevant to the challenges so many of us are facing some 200 years later?
