Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Foxing to foredges. Body text and binding are still very good.

It begins with the departure of Sir James Stirling and the arrival of Governor John Hutt. Sequel to the Department of Education's Swan River Settlement booklet.
Illustrated with references.
