Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (no published price), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 365pp, illust…rated. The book focuses on the voyage to Australia, during the nineteenth century and dispels some of the preconceptions of popular imagination. It follows the course of the travellers' lives after disembarkation in Australia. We hear from the migrants through their diaries as they reveal their hopes for the future and their lives aboard the ships. Quite a scarce book.
