Narrative of a Survey of the Intertropical and Western Coasts of Australia — Vol. 2
Philip Parker King
The survey continues along Australia's tropical edge, King's ships pushing into inlets no European chart had named. This second volume carries the expedition further, thick with hydrography, plates, and observations of the plants and animals of an unknown shore. Discovery told in a mariner's steady hand. Follow the voyage to its farthest reach.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
