Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. A fine copy. Pp. x, 265. First published in 1898. A classic firsthand account of gold prospecting and desert exploration in the 1890s. The early parts of the book describe life on the goldfields: the hardships of being "hard up," mining at Bayley's Reward, dry-blowing, quartz reefing, the scarcity of water, and several prospecting expeditions into unknown country (including to Kurnalpi, Queen Victoria Spring, Mount Margaret, and a successful gold find at Lake Darlot that financed his later travels).
