Excerpt: ...the hill close to the township, commonly called the Barometer Hill (1305) as it is said to indicate the weather by its appearance. A strong breeze blowing throughout the night of the 27"', moderating towards morning. Had some difficulty in finding the horses, which had strayed during the night, thus delaying our departure. Travelled along the Beechworth road and reached Violet Town at 3" 15'." Observations during the whole evening; weather fine. Discovered that the mercury for the artificial horizon had nearly all run out of the little bottle and that what remained was spoiled. Decided on going to Benalla to procure a. new supply. During the morning of the next day made observations until 9." Observing the sun, I saw some very large spots on its face, a particularly fine group nearly in the centre. The magnetic station is on a square plot of ground within the reserve attached to the Commercial Hotel; geological formation, granite. The numberless drunkards here are an intolerable nuisance, loitering about the place and disturbing one continually in one's work. The little township is as yet very insignificant. The inhabitants seem mostly engaged on the works connected with road-building which is being carried on with great vigour on this line. Left at 11" and reached Benalla. Conversed much with several people with the view of getting all possible information respecting our trip over to l/Iansfield by the Holland River. Succeeded in gaining from them that this route, although not devoid of considerable difficulties, was practicable even for pack-horses; accordingly resolved on taking it. At 12" on the 30"' passed the bridge across the Holland River (562), and at 3..".

Download or read book Burke and Wills written by EB Joyce and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book challenges the common assumption that little or nothing of scientific value was achieved during the Burke and Wills expedition. The Royal Society of Victoria initiated the Victorian Exploring Expedition as a serious scientific exploration of hitherto unexplored regions of inland and northern Australia. Members of the expedition were issued with detailed instructions on scientific measurements and observations to be carried out, covering about a dozen areas of science. The tragic ending of the expedition meant that most of the results of the scientific investigations were not reported or published. Burke and Wills: The Scientific Legacy of the Victorian Exploring Expedition rectifies this historic omission. It includes the original instructions as well as numerous paintings and drawings, documents the actual science undertaken as recorded in notebooks and diaries, and analyses the outcomes. It reveals for the first time the true extent and limits of the scientific achievements of both the Burke and Wills expedition and the various relief expeditions which followed. Importantly, this new book has led to a re-appraisal of the shortcomings and the successes of the journey. It will be a compelling read for all those interested in the history of exploration, science and natural history, as well as Australian history and heritage.

Book Synopsis The Aboriginal Story of Burke and Wills by : Ian Clark
Download or read book The Aboriginal Story of Burke and Wills written by Ian Clark and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aboriginal Story of Burke and Wills is the first major study of Aboriginal associations with the Burke and Wills expedition of 1860–61. A main theme of the book is the contrast between the skills, perceptions and knowledge of the Indigenous people and those of the new arrivals, and the extent to which this affected the outcome of the expedition. The book offers a reinterpretation of the literature surrounding Burke and Wills, using official correspondence, expedition journals and diaries, visual art, and archaeological and linguistic research – and then complements this with references to Aboriginal oral histories and social memory. It highlights the interaction of expedition members with Aboriginal people and their subsequent contribution to Aboriginal studies. The book also considers contemporary and multi-disciplinary critiques that the expedition members were, on the whole, deficient in bush craft, especially in light of the expedition’s failure to use Aboriginal guides in any systematic way. Generously illustrated with historical photographs and line drawings, The Aboriginal Story of Burke and Wills is an important resource for Indigenous people, Burke and Wills history enthusiasts and the wider community. This book is the outcome of an Australian Research Council project.
