8°. 403 S., zahlreiche sw-Abbildungen, Bibliographie, Pappband (gut erhalten) (=Fremde Kulturen in alten Berichten ; Bd. 9) Hermann Beckler bietet in seinen hier erstmals veröffentlichten Briefen an seinen Bruder Karl um die Mitte des 19. Jhrs. die bislang lebendigste Schilderung Australiens in deutscher Sprache, zu einer Zeit a…lso, in der der "fünfte Kontinent" nur in einer viermonatigen Segelschiffsreise zu erreichen war. Sie zeichnet sich durch eine realistische und unbefangene Sichtweise aus, in der Deutsches und Europäisches vielfach mit Australischem in Beziehung gesetzt und verglichen wird.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. First-hand accounts of the myth-laden Burke and Wills expedition are remarkably few, in contrast to the reams of subsequent commentary and conjecture. Wills's journal and statements by others in the party were published at the time, but little more. Hermann Beckler, botanical collector and d…octor to the expedition, wrote the only other substantial account, in his native German. The manuscript remained with his family for nearly a century. It is now published for the first time. This highly readable account, with drawings and maps, offers insights into the causes of the expedition's failurea "an ill-chosen leader and route, and inappropriate and excessive supplies. In increasingly desperate conditions Beckler collected and identified the native flora, and recorded vivid and positive descriptions of the landscape and the Aboriginal people. His acute observations indicate what might have been achieved had the expedition pursued its scientific brief. This item is printed on demand.
