Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Australasian Wander-Year The ensuing pages on Australasian travel have been chiefly written from the point of view of the picturesque, and do not profess to deal either with the past history or the present political outlook of the Commonwealth of Australia. They are especially intended for the benefit of the British visitor to Australia and New Zealand, who, I venture to think, will find various matters of interest and some practical hints in these pages. It is a record of recent travel over a large area in the Antipodes, so that my own experiences and expeditions may supply some useful information to those who are anxious to become acquainted with some of the natural beauties and with the acknowledged show-sights of Australasia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seventy Years of Life in the Victorian Era: Embracing a Travelling Record in Australia, New Zealand, and America, &C I AM one who has just commenced to traverse his seventy-first year, and can look backward over a life more or less of a checkered character, involving as it does a time spent in actual warfare, as well as in a struggling civil life passed in the metro polis and the provinces of England, with intervals of travel extending over Europe, the Australian colonies, and America. A review of the experiences of such a life may, perhaps, prove to be interesting and even instructive, and I make no further apologies for printing these reminiscences.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Golden Gifts: An Australian Tale Beneath the hard crust of earth, deeply embedded below its surface, wandering in strange and curious veins, hidden from the human eye by huge masses of strata, lies the golden ore, so plentift scattered through our sister colony (more sparingly bestowed upon our own), which needs the aid of pick and shovel to upturn, and disinter, and reveal - requires the hand of the diligent, the strength of the strong, and the wisdom of the wise to bring it to the light of day; how gladly is that strength bestowed, how is the utmost diligence expended, how is man's wisdom heavily taxed, and how well is all that care, and labour, and anxiety repaid by the brilliant golden nuggets obtained. But it is not of material gold we have written, dear readers, or to which we desire your attention. Our Golden Gifts are not to be sought for in the surface of the earth; they are around you on every side - they are within you - they are above The gifts are yours.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aborigines of Western Australia I am well aware that the subject is rather out of my line, and for this reason alone I can scarcely expect to do justice to the theme. Nevertheless, during my wander ings through Western Australia, in the capacity of a mining engineer, I came across a good many of the natives; and taking a profound interest in everything connected with the colony I resolved to set down in brief and simple form such facts as I could glean regarding this most curious specimen of the human race. I lay no more claim to originality than is due to one who has arranged his matter in his own way, and added a few thoughts suggested and accruing.

He had come in the accustomed way Of his duty from God Knows Where - some island out-station - to this blistering desolation for God Only Knew How Long (said he); and though he was only a boy and though he had chosen this occupation for the sake of the great adventure of seeing the world he had now no gaiety.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australian Life I was walking along George Street, Brisbane, last Monday in the afternoon when I suddenly ran upon my friend Power. Power is a man worth knowing. I suppose no one has been along the Australian coast, from Perth to Port Darwin, more Often than he has. Is there a little port-town all round that he has not been in? Is there a river, navi gable or unnavigable, that finds its way into Australian seas. That he has not floated on? His stock Of tales is the largest and best Of anyone I know, and he has a sort of humorous kindliness about him, a genuine humanistic tolerance and appreciation, which has made him the friend of all sorts and conditions of men, women, and animals. He has the unctuous pleasure of discovering and understanding every oddity, and the light of this pleasure beams up in his eyes and on his lips and in his whole face as he sits Opposite some abnormal piece of humanity in a cosy corner, just as when he pauses from his submarine work in his diver's dress to observe the antics Of some eccentric denizen of the deep.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children of Wild Australia All the time I have been writing this little book I have been wishing I could gather you all around me and take you with me to some of the places in far away Australia where I myself have seen the little black children at their play. You would understand so much better all I have tried to say. It is a bright sunny land where those children live, but in many ways a far less pleasant land to live in than our own. The country often grows very parched and bare, the grass dies, the rivers begin to dry up, and the poor little children of the wilderness have great difficulty in getting food. Then perhaps a great storm comes and a great quantity of rain falls. The rivers fill up and the grass begins to grow again, but myriads of ies follow and they get into the children's eyes and perhaps blind some of them, and the mosquitoes come and bite them and give them fevers sometimes.
