Flagstaff Hill Maritime Museum and VillageBook - Referance Book, Thomas Curson Hansard Junior, Hansards Pocket Peerage, 1854
... biography or a piece of creative literature; rather, it is a utilitarian, factual reference work. However, it holds high historical significance as a snapshot of Victorian political and social hierarchy, showing exactly who held power and influence in the British Empire in 1854. The Fawkner signature elevates this from a common reference book to a highly desirable piece of Australiana. Authentic artifacts, documents, or personal library books signed by the founders of Melbourne are scarce and deeply sought after by Australian universities, state libraries, museums, and private collectors of colonial history ...This volume is a genealogical and biographical reference directory of the British nobility. It was designed as a compact, portable handbook detailing the titles, lineages, coats of arms, and family histories of the peers of Great Britain and Ireland, as well as bishops and baronets. While Thomas Curson Hansard is famous for establishing the printing of Britain's official parliamentary debates (Hansard), his firm also published these highly practical, condensed pocket guides for politicians, gentlemen, and libraries who needed quick access to the details of high society and parliamentary ranks.Hansards Pocket Peerage Publisher: T C Newby Date: 1854 Further Information: Signed by John Pascoe Fawknernon-fictionThis volume is a genealogical and biographical reference directory of the British nobility.
