A Narrative of recent Travels and old Experiences in the Golden, Pastoral, and Agricultural Districts of Victoria and New South Wales.
By SAMUEL MOSSMAN, Author of "The Gold Regions of Australia," &c. and THOMAS BANISTER, Author of "England and her Dependencies," &c.
With Maps by A. K. JOHNSTON, Geographer to Her Majesty.
"The narrative is of a truthful, matter-of-fact character. The writers tell us what they saw, with little if any colouring or exaggeration. Wherever there is any interest in the things themselves, it is preserved in the book, whether it relates to the appearance of the gold-diggings and the diggers or their mode of life--to the places frequently depopulated of _men_ by the gold fever pervading the colonies, to the night bivouac of quiet people to avoid the close atmosphere and riotous companions at the roadside inns from the crowds rushing to or returning from the diggings, or to many other more permanent scenes of still or animated life. With the actual are mingled remarks on Australia, and advice to emigrants, the latter of which is of a judicious kind."--_Spectator._
