Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly tail edge. Foxing to top foredge. Dust jacket has creasing at edges. Pages are sunned. Interior and binding are still very good.
One of the most comprehensive and fascinating 19th-century publications on the Australian colonies. It has been taken from the original four-volume Cassell's Picturesque Australasia edited by E. E. Morris. The original also included New Zealand, New Guinea and Fiji.
This facsimile volume includes all the pages from Cassell's Picturesque Australasia that relate to Australia as we know it today. It is slightly larger than the original publications.
