Riassunto

This pioneering 1879 dictionary of people and events remains a valuable source for the history of European settlement in Australia.

Descrizione del libro

In 1879 the young journalist John Henniker Heaton (1848–1914) published this pioneering two-part dictionary. Containing biographies of notable men and women with Australian connections, and covering topics from Aboriginal cricketers to the Zig Zag railway, it remains a valuable resource for the history of European settlement in Australia.
