Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Sunning to foredges. Dust jacke has creasing at edges and some small tears at corners. Fading to spine. Interior and binding are still very good.
Wollaston was an observant writer who included lively accounts of shipboard life and the setting up of his parish, St Mark's, at Picton. His honest description of life in Australia's alien environment is a valuable primary source document. Wollaston became rector at Albany and Perth's first archdeacon.
Edited with introduction and notes by Cannon Burton and Rev. Percy U Henn.
