Book Synopsis European Discovery and Exploration of Australia by : Erwin Feeken
Download or read book European Discovery and Exploration of Australia written by Erwin Feeken and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The map of Australia abounds with fascinating geographical place-names, the origins of which have, for long, been hidden in the journals of our early explorers. Now after nine years of research, Erwin Feeken, a highly qualified cartographer, and his wife, Gerda, have finalised the first complete record of Australian geographical place-names and the most comprehensive general reference work on Australian exploration ever published. In European Discovery and Exploration of Australia, there are twenty-three beautifully drawn four-colour maps plus index showing the routes of more than 120 explorers with the locality of their named features numbered to accord with a Key to the Maps. The place-names in the Key have been numbered approximately in chronological order of their naming, though places found during a single expedition have been grouped together. There is also a gazetteer containing over four thousand place-names alphabetically arranged with notes on their origins. The map reference numbers (in brackets) form a cross-reference with the Key to the Maps. The work is introduced by a foreword from Lord Casey and an essay on the nature of Australian exploration by Professor O. H. K. Spate, director of the Research School of Pacific Studies, Australian National University. The text, comprising a survey of Australian exploration, is arranged in the form of biographies of the explorers (describing, for the first time, several almost unknown figures) with emphasis on their expeditions and under the following headings: “The Approach to Australia”; “Exploration before Settlement, 1606–1788”; “From Botany Bay to the Blue Mountains, 1788–1813”; “Land and Sea Expeditions, 1813–1901.” This section of the book is very fully illustrated with 18 full-colour plates and some 150 black-and-white photographs, mostly reproductions of early prints. Concluding the book are bibliographies of sources and references, a list of illustrations, and an index of explorers and ships. The comprehensive nature of this work will ensure that it becomes a valuable reference book for students, while the text and illustrations will appeal to all who are interested in our history. Collectors of Australiana will welcome this most attractive addition to the ever-increasing number of available publications.

Download or read book Face Values written by Dawn Johnson and published by Boolarong Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Face Values paints my rollercoaster ride of emotions after waking up with half a nose and a hole where my cheek should be. It shares the stigma of gross facial disfigurement, the pain and trauma of radiation therapy, misdiagnosis of peri-neural invasion leading to a life or death decision. Invasive skull based surgery followed by years of painful and debilitating reconstruction of my face resulting in severe bouts of depression. From the depth of despair, I discover the value of life. I learn that the face we show the world is of minor importance. True friends and caring people see below this surface. Face Values shows how inner strengh, together with the right attitude, can triumph over the spectre of other people's reactions and the deep dark holes of depression. We draw our strengh from lifetime experiences. Mine came from a primitive childhood in outback Queensland and was nurtured by personal traumas including the death of two children while fighting to establish and maintain a successful business career.
Book Synopsis Journals of Expeditions of Discovery into Central Australia and Overland by : Edward John Eyre
Download or read book Journals of Expeditions of Discovery into Central Australia and Overland written by Edward John Eyre and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward John Eyre's 'Journals of Expeditions of Discovery into Central Australia and Overland' offers readers a detailed account of Eyre's adventurous journeys through the uncharted regions of Australia. Eyre's writing style is both informative and engaging, providing insights into the harsh terrain, encounters with indigenous peoples, and the challenges faced during his expeditions. The book is a valuable literary work that sheds light on the exploration of the Australian outback in the 19th century, serving as a primary source for historians and researchers studying this period. Eyre's meticulous observations and vivid descriptions make this book a compelling read for those interested in Australian exploration literature. Edward John Eyre, a British explorer, and colonial administrator, drew inspiration from his own experiences traversing the Australian continent to write this remarkable piece of literature. His firsthand knowledge of the landscape and its inhabitants adds credibility to the narratives presented in the book, making it an invaluable resource for understanding the historical context of Australian exploration. I highly recommend 'Journals of Expeditions of Discovery into Central Australia and Overland' to readers interested in the history of exploration, geography, and Australian indigenous cultures.
