  • Ghost Towns of Australia – George Farwell

    Ghost Towns of Australia – George Farwell

    Published by Rigby, Adelaide in 1965. Octavo, 247 pages with plates and map end papers. Minor ageing with relevant article glued in at end. A Very good copy.

    Australia has its fair share of towns no longer up to their former glory … indeed many completely gone. That is the nature of pioneering existence whether mineral or agricultural or some other purpose.

    Interesting images of once glorious places

  • Tuckey’s Voyage (to Port Philip) – an abridgement 1805

    Tuckey’s Voyage (to Port Philip) – an abridgement 1805

    An abridgement of the 239 pages “An account of a Voyage to establish a Colony at Port Philip, in Bass’s Strait, on the south coast of New South Wales, in his majesty’s ship Calcutta, in the years 1802-3-4, by J. H. Tuckey Esq First Lieutenant of the Calcutta” – Longman & Co, London.

    20 pages in simple blue sugar paper wrappers. Refer Ferguson bibliography of Australia, 410 and copy in the National Library Rex Nan Kivell Collection NK1729.

    Much of the twenty pages is taken up by the voyage out but the arrival at Port Philip and the difficulties and hostilities encountered with the local aboriginal group are written up in detail and give a good understanding as to why the site was abandoned for the Derwent.

    Rare abridgement and early Port Philip
