Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. London, Sampson Low, Marston, Searle, & Rivington, 1876. Octavo, xvi, 432 pages plus 66 engraved plates, a folding table, a folding full-colour map of Australia (320 × 400 mm), and a large folding map of South Australia (795 × 545 mm, with minimal colour) in an endpocket. Cloth lig…htly rubbed at the extremities, with the rear top corner a little bumped; edges slightly marked or darkened; front free endpaper slightly cracked near the head of the hinge, with a small piece snipped from the top corner; tiny splits at a few intersecting folds in the map; minimal signs of age and use; an excellent copy. An undervalued work: the plates (wood engravings from photographs) are a major pictorial record, and there are two supplementary chapters on the Northern Territory and Central Australia. 'In the chapter on the Northern Territory, I have incorporated some useful papers written by residents there, and prepared for publication by Mr J.G. Knight'. The chapter on Central Australia is even more important: 'Since the foregoing was in type, the following interesting and well-written account of Central Australia, along the line of telegraph, has appeared in the "Register". The writer, Mr J.A. Giles, is well acquainted with the whole of the country which he describes. It is the best and most trust-worthy account of Central Australia which has yet been published'. The entire chapter is devoted to the article, which refers on occasion (and thus eliminates any misattribution) to Alfred Giles, the explorer with strong telegraph line credentials. Ferguson 10233 (not recording the maps).
