Hamilton Hume: The Life and Times of Our Greatest Explorer by Robert Macklin

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pags are sunned. Interior and binding are still very good.

Less known than other Australian explorers, author Robert Macklin argues that Hamilton Hume was our greatest explorer. Hamilton Hume, a man with a profound understanding of the Aboriginal people and an almost mystical relationship with the Australian bush, led settlers from the cramped surrounds of Sydney Town to the vast fertile country that would provide the wealth to found and sustain a new nation.
