Extracts From The Letters Of James Backhouse is a book that contains a collection of letters written by James Backhouse during his religious visit to Van Dieman's Land and New South Wales in 1834. Backhouse was accompanied by George Washington Walker on this journey. The letters provide a detailed account of their travels, interactions with the locals, and observations of the social and political conditions of the colonies. The book sheds light on the early history of Australia, the impact of colonization on the indigenous people, and the efforts of the Quaker missionaries to spread their faith. The letters are written in a clear and concise style, making it an easy read for anyone interested in the history of Australia and Quakerism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
