Add to basketCloth. Condition: Good. A work on the Southern regions of Australia, illustrated with photographs throughout. A interesting piece of travel writing from the late 19th century. Offering a history on the founding of Australia, its railways, laws, local government, immigration, education, industry and much more. Unfortunately this…work is missing numerous plates throughout, which appear to be the illustrative maps. Most likely removed by a previous owner. Despite this the work is still an interesting work of Australian history. Numerous illustrated plates remain, with a folding plate towards the rear of the volume. 34 plates missing in total. The work was edited by the Congregational minister William Harcus. Emigrating to Australia in 1860, he turned his hand to journalism and was appointed the lead writer for South Australian Register. He continued his ministerial and journalist work throughout his life. Collated, incomplete. In the original cloth binding. Externally smart. Minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine, and also to the extremities. Rubbing to the joints and to the extremities, resulting in a small amount of loss to the cloth. The odd mark to the front and rear boards. Front and rear joints are starting. Internally, generally firmly bound. A few pages are detached, caused by plate removal rather than the binding, though it is strained in places. Pages are very lightly agetoned. Numerous plates are detached. Overall condition of the work is affected by the lacking plates. Good. Unamed (illustrator). book.
