AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Peter Monteath’s publication of an English-language version of Gerstäcker’s Australien makes a worthwhile contribution to early Australian history. Many authors wrote of their travels in Australia; for example, George Theodore Blakers’ account of life in Australia from 1849-64; Anthony Trollope’s travels in the early 1870s in Australia and New Zealand, and Adolph Würfel, influenced by Trollope, (K.M. Reynolds, Romanticism, Culture and Migration – the diary of Adolf Würfel) covering the period from 1876-1877, and Mark Twain, The Wayward Tourist (1895). Also there were settlers, who wrote of their first-hand experiences in Australia.' (Introduction)
