London, George Philip, 1905. . First edition. 8vo, viii, 44pp., 2 maps (1 large folding), later red cloth gilt.
Calvert promoted and financed this expedition, under the command of Lawrence Allen Wells, to explore unknown portions of inland Western Australia in 1896-97. The expedition failed to make any great discoveries and really only "showed that most of the unknown portions of the interior were uninhabitable desert" (Wantrup).
