The Mrs Aeneas Gunn Memorial Library
Book, Rolf Boldrewood [pseud.], Robbery under arms : a story of life and adventure in the bush and in the goldfields of Australia, 1947
Robbery Under Arms was acclaimed as an Australian classic almost immediately after it appeared in book form in the late 1880s. It was praised for its excitement, romance and authentic picture of 1850s colonial life. As the first writer to attempt a long narrative in the voice of an uneducated Australian bushman, Rolf Boldrewood had created a story with enduring cultural resonance. Its continuing appeal and popularity have seen the tale frequently adapted for stage, radio, film and television.p.433.fictionRobbery Under Arms was acclaimed as an Australian classic almost immediately after it appeared in book form in the late 1880s.

This book of lectures on optics & geometry by Isaac Barrow, from 1674, was published in London in Latin to make it available to scholars across Europe.
