B.w. illustrations. Maps. Near-fine in dark purple boards with gilt lettering to spine, illustrated endpapers, in a v.g. (small closed tear top of spine) unclipped d.w. No markings or inscriptions. Complete coverage of the development of Victoria's social, political, economic and cultural life, in town and country. We see the strange new land through the eyes of the early explorers and settlers; we experience the excitement and challenge of the gold rushes; we feel for the ordinary people through periods of unemployment and hardship. Here are also the great and notorious personalities of Victoria's, and Australia's history - the Kelly gang, John Wren, Nellie Melba - as well as an impressive parade of leading politicians, wartime leaders and statesmen which Victoria has produced - Higinbotham, Monash, Menzies, Cain, Dunstan, Bolte, to name a few.
