Of note is the inclusion of papers concerning the expedition to determine the fate of Leichhardt. Ferguson 10075 (listed in error as having illustrations), Wantrup 190a (correcting Ferguson's error). An attractive, clean, complete and entirely original copy that would grace any collection.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good. 8vo.

Sobre Lawrence Jones
I carry a general stock of approx 70000 titles of which only a small percentage is online. Viewing at my Ashmore bookrooms is welcome by appointment. While not specializing I have a good selection of art, natural history, military and surfing in stock. I also have many other non-fiction subjects, as well as approx 10000 paperback fiction titles on hand.
