Across Australia Volume II Author(s): Sir Baldwin Spencer & Francis James Gillen
; Publisher: Macmillan and Co., London (1912) Second Edition
; ; Hard Cover : 260 pages ; English This hard cover book is the second edition of the second
volume of a two book set with pages between 255 and 515.
Hard cover and loaded with illustrations of Aborigines and
Aboriginal artifacts. There are also some maps. The authors
travelled throughout Central Australia and documented
everything that they saw related to the Aboriginal culture.
This book is very rare. I could only find one other copy for
sale while doing an internet search. The binding is fairly
good for such an old book. There is some wear in the cloth
covering at the edge of the spine. There is a slight bow to
the boards because of shelf storage. Volume II is really
great by itself and it doesn't need Volume I.
