Early salmon-pink cloth (a secondary binding) lettered in gilt on the spine ('South Australia' and 'Bennett'); cloth sunned on the spine and slightly mottled; boards a little bowed; endpapers a little foxed and lightly marked; a very good copy (internally in fine condition). The author lived in South Australia from March 1839 to March 1842; chapters include 'Sketch of Adelaide and Surrounding Villages - Colonial Life and Manners', 'The Native Inhabitants', and 'Information for Emigrants', plus an appendix bringing the information up to date to the end of 1842. Ferguson 3566 (mentioning four different bindings, but not noting this one, the most commonly encountered one in our experience).
