This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australia as It Really Is in Its Life, Scenery,& Adventure The sadly-waning prospects of family affairs - a miserable necessity for retrenchment - the horrid bore of having at the age of twenty-one to begin to get my own living - and the difficulty of attaining that object in a community so thronged as England with fellow-competitors in the race for life - were among the most important considerations which directed my attention to the subject of Emigration. In the majority of similar cases ill health is, perhaps, the most fashionable motive to assign, and, indeed, I "enjoyed" enough of this to justify the customary plea; for England - moist, foggy, dear Old England! - does not possess precisely the climate best adapted for pulmonary predelictions; but, if the truth must be told, poverty! unpopular poverty! and the plebeian hope of being able to better my worldly condition, were the real moving causes which urged this important subject seriously upon my attention.

Book Synopsis In the Australian Bush (Classic Reprint) by : Richard Semon
Download or read book In the Australian Bush (Classic Reprint) written by Richard Semon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Australian Bush Much however, that I experienced and observed during my travels is ill-adapted to that work, which appeals exclusively to the professed naturalist. Many occasional observations concerning animals and plants, countries and their inhabitants, and the impres sions produced by the sight of the Australian Bush, the Coral Islands of Torres Straits, the tropical charms of New Guinea, Java, and Amboyna, as well as a general picture of that far Australian world, its continents and islands, could only find expression in the freer and more popular form of a book of travel. Thus it is that this simple narrative, which perchance may offer some special in terest to the naturalist, is intended for the reader who likes to aecom pany a traveller to foreign shores and nations; for him who does not mind entering into his labours and worries, but who, on the other hand, may perhaps find pleasure in sharing his delight in nature and in human life, a delight awaiting any one happy enough to behold those glorious regions with clear eyes and a responsive mind. The illustrations accompanying my account are, with a very few exceptions, originals reproduced from my own photographs of people and landscapes, whilst the animals have been drawn by Mr. A. Giltsch from specimens brought home by me. My photographic apparatus, bought in Europe, having failed after a few months, I was forced to content myself with an old camera, which I purchased from a man who acted as blacksmith, watchmaker, and photographer to a small Queensland settlement. This purchase I have come to regard as a thorough piece of good luck, since it alone enabled me to produce illustrations at all, be they ever so inferior in quality.

But one of the virtues attributed to the people of the New Atlantis is nobly illustrated by the people of the Australian colonies. The adventurous navi gators who visited the mysterious island say, We found among its inhabitants such a freedom and desire to take strangers, as it were, into their bosoms, as was enough to make us forget all that was dear to us in our own country.

Book Synopsis In Australian Wilds by : Charles Barrett
Download or read book In Australian Wilds written by Charles Barrett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Australian Wilds: The Gleanings of a Naturalist Mr. Barrett has in late years seen and studied strange phases of Nature in other lands - in Egypt, in Sinai, in Palestine - where one may still check his impressions by reference to the first book of Nature. And at the end of it he has come back, not to tell us of war, either in its romance or its realities, but to drop quietly into the old haunts and seclusions and give us in his first published words just the old hobby and the old home things. The one thing which all his old friends and admirers would have wished is that everyone who takes up this book could know the author of it as we do. It would have added much to their enjoyment and understanding of his work. He is a tireless, even a daring hunter, without the hunter's limitations in daring most only for the things that are good to kill and to eat. The author, though he has what the scientist is pleased to call attainments, is in no sense a cabinet naturalist. His book is popular, which means that it is human. The actual anatomy of bird or beast appeals to him less than its habits, its activities, and, above all, its living rights, in Nature's wonderful scheme of things. The name of a thing - the point where scientific knowledge so often begins and ends - is of less importance to him than the thing it self. It is a book to read and keep for company's sake, in the same sense that a picture is so often aptly described as good to live with.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in England and Australia: Reminiscences of Travels and Voyages Over One Hundred Thousand Miles, or Forty Years in the Wilderness I do so with a great deal of pleasure. First, because in the order of Divine Providence, our appointed spheres of labour in the Lord's vineyard are dissimilar, and yet (blessed be God!) we fight beneath the same banner, under the same great and gracious Captain, and with precisely the same end and object in view; namely, His glory, and the saving and eternal welfare of our poor, fallen, fellow-sinners. Hence I am glad with another opportunity for setting aside party names and petty distinctions, and recognizing both the person and work of one with whom I may not see eye to eye in some of the non essential minutiae of denominational views or practices, but yet fully accord with in the grand fundamentals of our most holy Faith.
