Cloth. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xxi, 699pp.,index, folding map, biblio., notes, ill., photos. Full title: "The History of Tasmania, with copious information respecting the Colonies of New South Wales, Victoria South Australia, &c." Edited, with an introduction, by A.G.L. Shaw. Ex-library, typical ex-library flaws but has survived being a library book quite well, with only small stamps, no major scars, appears minimally circulated, wrapped and taped DJ. "This new edition of the History is far more than a facsimile of the original. Professor Shaw has added a biograhical introduction and extensive annotations which illuminate the background events and personalities for the non-contemporary and non-local reader. The History of Tasmania is a fascinating record of the early years of the colony.".
