2006 reprint by Rediscovery Books SB 2 volsPublished Price £35 The author of this fascinating and little-known work of 19th century exploration led, as his title says, three expeditions into the unknown interior of Australia in the 1830s at a time when the vast country was little more than a small collection of sparsely inhabited British colonies clinging to the coast. In Mitchellâ s words he discovered virgin territory: â a country which is yet in the same state as when it was formed by its Makerâ . Composed from the journals which he wrote up at the end of each dayâ s trek, the books contain the authorâ s observations of the Aboriginal people, as well as the animals, plants, fossils, topography and meterology he encountered in exploring the Gwydir, Darling and Murray river areas. Well and lavishly illustrated, this two-volume work is indispensible to all those interested in early exploration and the history of Australia.

A very good complete set. Thomas Livingstone Mitchell (1792-1855) was sent to New South Wales as deputy surveyor-general in 1827 becoming Surveyor-General in 1828, holding the office until his death. His first journey in 1831-32 was in search of the Kindur river, surveying the area between the Castlereagh and Gwydir Rivers, the second explored the course of the river Darling in 1835, and the third in 1836 was an expedition to the rivers Darling and Murray during which he made a detour to the south to discover the rich lands of western Victoria which he named Australia Felix. The lithograph plates which are all drawn by the author show aborigines, scenery, a few animals and birds, minerals and geology. The text describes his travels, scenery, natural history, geology, and encounters with aborigines.
