18485001112London: Longman Brown Green and Longmans 1848. Octavo frontispiece 11 lithograph plates and seven maps four folding a very good copy complete with 24 pp. publisher's advertisements neatly recased in the original red cloth spine gilt the cloth in bright condition. <p><p>First edition of Mitchell's account of his last expedition. In late 1845 with Edmund Kennedy as his second-in-command Mitchell set out from Sydney in search of an overland route to the Port Essington settlement. Although he did not find the hoped-for route over the next year he explored a vast area of unknown country in tropical Queensland returning to Sydney in December 1846. As with his earlier expeditions Mitchell showed contempt for official orders preferring instead to follow his instincts. In this instance he seemed more interested in discovering the fabled Kindur River one of his more enduring but erroneous beliefs. To justify his decision he here represented his discovery of the Victoria River which was in fact the Barcoo as the legendary great north-flowing source. Although Mitchell did not succeed in finding a northward route and - if anything - further confused the riddle of the inland rivers upon his return the expedition charted a vast area of previously unknown country without significant mishap or the loss of a single man.</p> <p>The fine tinted lithograph views in the books are all after Mitchell's own drawings. His work as a topographical artist has gained increasing respect in recent years and can be appreciated in the plates prepared for this book. It is characterised by a fine attention to detail and an accomplished use of tone and shading.</p> <p>An attractive copy in its original cloth binding.</p> </p> .

Pp. xiv 438 2pp publisher’s advertisements. 8vo. original red cloth blindstamped border gilt vignette to spine. Joints a little worn some rubbing and soiling to cloth.Booksellers label from Melbourne. <br>With a presentation inscription from Mitchell’s sister: ‘From the Author’s sister to Miss Hall with warmest wishes for her welfare’.<br>Between 1831 and 1848 Mitchell made four major expeditions into the Australian interior. Mitchell's final year long expedition sought to solve once and for all the question of the drainage of North-Eastern Australia. He set out in December 1845 with Edmund Kennedy as second in command and proceeded north into tropical Queensland. He had hoped the Barcoo River what he called the Victoria would lead all the way to the Gulf of Carpentaria and thereby provide an overland route between Sydney and Port Essington on the Gulf of Carpentaria. A very good copy with a lovely association.Ferguson 4828 Association copy belonging to the author’s sister and inscribed by her John Murray hardcover
1838173536London: T. & W. Boone 1838. The deep tracks of his boat carriage quickly became their ribbon to follow to the south-west First edition of this illustrated account by the explorer who opened up the lush pastures of western Victoria to colonial settlement. His three daring expeditions added extensively to knowledge of Australia's inland waterways. This copy is from the collection of Jonathan Wantrup a leading bibliographer of Australiana with his book label on the front pastedowns. Appointed deputy surveyor-general of New South Wales in 1827 Mitchell 1792-1855 arrived in Sydney in September and began a six-year effort to produce a topographical map of the colony. His "Map of the Colony of New South Wales 1834 otherwise known as the 'map of the nineteen counties' has scarcely been equalled anywhere. It was perhaps Mitchell's greatest achievement. He determined too to extend his surveys outside the nineteen counties and though there are other reasons for his exploratory expeditions this was a major factor" ODNB. Mitchell's first expedition begun in late 1831 while his map was still in progress "explored between the Nammoi and the Gwydir and crossed the latter to strike the Barwon but there was no north-west river; all streams were clearly tributaries of the Darling. The murder by Aborigines of two of his party as they were bringing up provisions made a return to the settled colony imperative" ODNB and his party reached Sydney in February 1832. His second expedition undertaken three years later charted the course of the Darling to the point where it turned south establishing the likely region where it met the Murray. "Mitchell's third and most significant journey was undertaken ostensibly to connect the Murray with the Darling but also to explore the Murray and perhaps the country south of it. The expedition left Sydney in March 1836 and moved down the Lachlan. It was impossible to cross to the Darling so Mitchell proceeded to the Murrumbidgee and into the Murray following it down to what was thought to be the Darling junction. He traced the Darling upstream only sufficiently far to satisfy himself that it was in fact that river. Some 30 miles below the Goulburn river junction he turned off south-west. The region he then opened up he named Australia Felix now the western district of Victoria which certainly forms one of the richest tracts in Australia. At the Murray he found the country on the eve of being taken up by graziers and the deep tracks of his boat carriage quickly became their ribbon to follow to the south-west. This journey which lasted over seven months thus added greatly to the knowledge of a very fertile region of Australia" ODNB.
