EARP, George Butler
The Gold Colonies of Australia...
Geo. Routledge, London, 1852. Octavo, folding frontispiece map; light wear but an extremely good copy, uncut in the original decorated green boards. First impression of the second edition of this influential emigrant's and gold digger's guide, issued in Routledge's series `The Popular Library'. This was one of the first guides devoted to the goldfields, and so marks the beginnings of the history of mass emigration of would-be diggers to Australia. The first edition had appeared before news of the Victorian discoveries had reached England; this edition includes for the first time a full account of the "Port Phillip" discoveries. Like other goldfields guides, copies that survive are often in poor condition: this is a particularly good copy.
