Australia Visited And Revisited is a travel narrative written by Samuel Mossman, originally published in 1853. The book provides a detailed account of the author's travels through Victoria and New South Wales, offering insight into the landscapes, people, and culture of these regions during the mid-19th century.Mossman's narrative is a combination of personal experiences and historical observations, as he recounts his encounters with Indigenous Australians, settlers, and colonial officials. He also describes the natural beauty of the Australian landscape, including its flora and fauna, and provides commentary on the impact of European settlement on the environment.The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Mossman's travels, including his journey from England to Australia, his time in Melbourne and Sydney, and his exploration of the surrounding regions. Along the way, he discusses topics such as the gold rush, the development of transportation infrastructure, and the social and political climate of the colonies.Overall, Australia Visited And Revisited is a fascinating historical document that offers a unique perspective on Australia during a pivotal period of its history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the early years of European settlement in Australia, as well as those interested in travel writing and colonial history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
