Book Description
Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Sunning to top foredge. Interior and binding are also very good.
Meticulously researched, full of striking portraits and compelling insights into the Australian colonial experience, Bairstow's book charts the course of the Australian Agricultural Company.
Founded in 1824 by British legislation, the Australian Agricultural Company is one of Australia's oldest operating companies. Under its founding charter, the company was able to select one million acres of land in New South Wales. Its first workforce was made up of convicts, indentured servants and Indigenous Australians.
