Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. In unread condition. Some discolouration, black smudges, to back cover of book. John Pascoe Fawkner arrived in the Derwent with David Collins' party in February 1804, and watched the birth of the settlement and its fight to survive during its e arly years. More than sixt…y years later he returned to Hobart Town to interview its early pioneers and to prepare his memoirs of those times. Fawkner's memories were not always accurate (he was a boy when he arrived), and some of his accounts of events were based on hearsay or oral history. Nevertheless, his memoir is a valuable historical record, containing much information not found elsewhere. Unlike most other surviving accounts of early Hobart Town, it is written from the perspective of the free settler, and provides an insight into many aspects of daily life: encounters with Aborigines and bushrangers; fire, starvation and other hard ships of life on the land. It reflects what ordinary people thought, felt or believed, and adds a valuable human dimension to the scanty official records of the period.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. First Edition. JOHN PASCOE FAWKNER'S COPY of Liturgical Services. Floridly SIGNED in full FOUR TIMES by JOHN PASCOE FAWKNER in black ink. The 4 signatures appear on the title page, the first text page (p.3), in the middle of the book (p.347), & final text page (p.695) where he has added "May 10 '54 S…ydney". All four signatures are bright & clear, though the title-page signature has been ink-stamped, obscuring the "Fawkner" portion. John Pascoe Fawkner (1792-1869), founder of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia; early pioneer, businessman, politician. He is the namesake of two Melbourne suburbs, Fawkner & Pascoe Vale. This is his copy of Liturgical Services: Liturgies & Occasional Forms of Prayer Set Forth in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth. Edited for The Parker Society, by the Rev. William Keatinge Clay. FIRST EDITION, published 1847. From the preface: "The present volume comprises two Litanies, the English Prayer Book of 1559, the Godly Prayers, the Ordinal of 1559, the Latin Prayer Book of 1560, the New Calendar of 1561, & many Occasional Forms of Prayer set forth, chiefly by public authority, in the latter portion of the sixteenth century". Bound in publisher's original brown blind-embossed pebbled cloth, with bright gilt arms of The Parker Society to front board, gilt lettering to spine, blind-ruled spine, yellow endpapers. NOTE: A FAIR copy only. Cancelled Ex-Library copy with usual library markings (QC, UofM bookplate to front pastedown, plus several unobtrusive ink stamps internally [to 12 pages] from two libraries: Queen's College, University of Melbourne, & Congressional College Library, Melbourne), front board & ffep detached (but present), rear board loose, lacking top portion of spine (3 x 3cm), old library labels to spine, wear to spine gutters, much handling wear, faint marginal staining to first couple of pages, otherwise a solid hardcover reading copy. Internally VG. The value obviously lies in the fact that it was Fawkner's own personal copy of a much read/used book, with his ownership signatures. Fawkner lived a fascinating life. "He was born in 1792 in Cripplegate, London. His father was convicted of receiving stolen goods & in 1801 was sentenced to fourteen years transportation. With his mother & younger sister, Elizabeth, 11-year old John accompanied his father to the new settlement to be formed in Bass Strait. They joined H.M.S. Calcutta at Portsmouth & sailed on 29 April 1803 in company with the Ocean, carrying a number of free settlers & stores. After Port Phillip was abandoned & the convicts & settlers were moved to Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania), the Fawkners lived in a primitive hut at the new settlement on Sullivan's Cove, suffering great hardship & continuing shortages of food. In 1835 Fawkner financed a party of free settlers from Van Diemen's Land, to sail to the mainland in his ship, Enterprise. His party sailed to Port Phillip Bay & up the Yarra River to found a settlement which became the city of Melbourne. Fawkner himself landed at Hobson's Bay in October 1835 & at once began to lay the foundations of a fortune that grew to £20,000 in his first four years on the mainland. In January 1838 he added to his trade of hotel-keeping that of newspaper proprietor. In 1839 Fawkner also added to his already considerable land holdings a 780-acre property known as Pascoe Vale. As a man of property & influence, Fawkner took an active & leading part in the political & social struggles of the time. Fawkner died on 4 September 1869 at his home in Smith Street, Collingwood, the grand old man of contemporary Victoria." (largely from: Hugh Anderson, 'Fawkner, John Pascoe', Australian Dictionary of Biography, Vol. 1, MUP, 1966, pp.368-370). Thick heavy volume. Printed at The University Press, Cambridge. Full pagination as follows: ffep, [blank], half-title page, title page, contents (v-vii), preface (ix-xxxvi), 1-695pp, [blank], rear endpaper. Extremely RARE & UNIQUE SIGNED COPY from the library of the founder of Melbourne. Signed by Author(s).

FIRST EDITION, published 1860. Frontispiece engraving of Macaulay with facsimile signature printed below. With erratum sheet bound in following contents page. Bound in publisher's original blind-stamped brown cloth. Fair only, this volume lacks top half of spine, damage to foot of spine, covers are moderately soiled & stained & worn, hinges tender, binding cracked at page 160, light marginal staining throughout, otherwise a reading copy only. The value obviously lies in the fact that it was Fawkner's own personal copy of a much read/used book, with his ownership signature. Fawkner lived a fascinating life. "He was born in 1792 in Cripplegate, London. His father was convicted of receiving stolen goods & in 1801 was sentenced to fourteen years transportation. With his mother & younger sister, Elizabeth, 11-year old John accompanied his father to the new settlement to be formed in Bass Strait. They joined H.M.S. Calcutta at Portsmouth & sailed on 29 April 1803 in company with the Ocean, carrying a number of free settlers & stores. After Port Phillip was abandoned & the convicts & settlers were moved to Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania), the Fawkners lived in a primitive hut at the new settlement on Sullivan's Cove, suffering great hardship & continuing shortages of food. During one period when scurvy was rife, young Fawkner lost the use of his right leg for some months. In 1835 he financed a party of free settlers from Van Diemen's Land, to sail to the mainland in his ship, Enterprise. Fawkner's party sailed to Port Phillip Bay & up the Yarra River to found a settlement which became the city of Melbourne. Fawkner himself landed at Hobson's Bay in October 1835 & at once began to lay the foundations of a fortune that grew to £20,000 in his first four years on the mainland. In January 1838 he added to his trade of hotel-keeping that of newspaper proprietor. His Melbourne Advertiser was handwritten on four pages of foolscap for nine numbers until a press & type arrived from Tasmania, & it was then printed weekly until suppressed because Fawkner had no licence. In February 1839, with a licence, he began the Port Phillip Patriot & Melbourne Advertiser; this later became a daily, & he ran it in conjunction with a bookselling & stationery business. In 1839 Fawkner also added to his already considerable land holdings a 780-acre (316 ha) property known as Pascoe Vale. As a man of property & influence, Fawkner took an active & leading part in the political & social struggles of the time. Fawkner died on 4 September 1869 at his home in Smith Street, Collingwood, the grand old man of contemporary Victoria." (largely from: Hugh Anderson, 'Fawkner, John Pascoe (1792 - 1869)', Australian Dictionary of Biography, Vol. 1, Melbourne University Press, 1966, pp.368-370). Thomas Babington Macaulay (Lord Macaulay) (1800-1859) was a British poet, historian & Whig politician. He wrote extensively as an essayist & reviewer, & on British history. He also held political office as Secretary at War between 1839 & 1841 & Paymaster-General between 1846 & 1848. He was made Secretary at War in 1839 by Lord Melbourne & was sworn of the Privy Council the same year. The Miscellaneous Writings of Lord Macaulay was printed in 1860 by Spottiswoode & Co., London. 395pp + 24pp ads. Extremely RARE & UNIQUE SIGNED COPY from the library of the founder of Melbourne.
