MACKANESS, George
Captain William Bligh's Discoveries and Observations in Van Diemen's Land.
D.S. Ford Sydney,, 1943. Small quarto, 51 pp., with illustrations; original printed buff wrappers. A fine copy, and the head of the edition: copy number one of the altogether one hundred and five that were printed, numbered and signed by the author in ink. This was one of the fifteen copies reserved for presentation. Since it is not inscribed to anyone but is number one of the edition it seems probable that it was Mackaness' own retained copy.
Spence, 'Bligh', p.19.
