This 1746 3rd Edition of Thomas Salmon’s Modern History is a fantastic slice of Enlightenment era geography and publishing history. It sits at a fascinating intersection of early modern travel literature, top tier cartography, and the rise of one of London's most famous publishing houses. Thomas Salmon’s Modern History: or, the Present State of All Nations was an ambitious encyclopedic project. Rather than focusing strictly on dynastic timelines, Salmon took a modern geographical and ethnographic approach. For each region covered, he detailed its geography and climate, along with its natural resources, plants, animals, and minerals. Culture and society were covered by focusing on local habits, dress, religious rites, laws, customs, and architecture. Economy and trade were also detailed, including the arts, sciences, husbandry, and commercial manufactures.

The Australian Race Vol. 4 by Edward M. Curr is the highly illustrated fourth part of Curr’s four volume ethnographic survey of Aboriginal Australia. It consolidates his findings on origins, languages, customs, and distributions, and its atlas volume furnishes a large comparative language map and ethnographic plates. The four volume set are a broad survey of Aboriginal peoples’ origins, languages, social customs, and movements across the Australian continent. The fourth volume functions as an atlas and language compendium, pairing textual material with a folio atlas of comparative vocabularies and a large map that traces routes and distributions. This volume also documents specific rites and regional practices, as part of his broader attempt to synthesize ethnographic and linguistic data across Australia. The work is considered a foundational reference work although in today's modern world is is regarded as dated and eurocentric set of volumes as a reference in Australian Indigenous studies and anthropology.

Document - Framed Poster, Borough of Warrnambool, Victoria, Australia, after 30/06/1875

... Document outlines the establishment of Warrnambool as a Municipality in 1855 and Borough in 1863, with a population of 4,500 in 1875. It states geographic location, public buildings and institutions, harbor facilities and imports and exports for the year ending 30th June 1875. ...

This document, also referred to as a word picture or Tablet, is framed in glass and timber with gilt trim, is handwritten with colour highlights. The penned letters rest on ruled guide lines, decorated where the lines intersect. The writing gives a description of the state of Borough of Warrnambool around 1875; its location, the area it covers, its population, Harbour and facilities, public buildings and institutions, imports and exports, financial worth, number of houses, connection with other areas of the Colony. A possible reason and origin for the document is found in an article ‘Link with US Exhibition’ from the Warrnambool Standard of December 19, 1981, written by local historian Bruce Morris. The writer mentions that the Warrnambool Borough Council met on 15th June 1875 and recorded a letter from G.C. Levey , secretary to the Melbourne group of commissioners representing the Colony, and Victoria in particular, for the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition of 1876. The letter asks Council to provide “statistics as to the population, social condition and commercial and industrial state of the district in and around Warrnambool.” A sub committee was formed for the project. The Mayor, Cr. Thomas King, wrote and signed a Report, presented to the council on July 14, 1875, in which “The Committee … begs to recommend that a Tablet be prepared setting for the particulars respecting the following matters relating to the Borough”. The matters included area, population, annual income, churches, schools, other public buildings, societies and companies, general description of houses erected, and returns of exports and imports for 1874. The minutes note that the Report was adopted. The article above also notes the opinion of Warrnambool printers who have examined the document; it is almost certainly to be an old lithograph, which means there could be several copies. It is possible that there may be a copy in Melbourne and another in Philadelphia. It is interesting to note that (1) the quoted location co-ordinates are for an “Unnamed Road, Packsaddle NSW 2880, Australia”, and that the DMS co-ordinates for Warrnambool’s Council Offices differ, being 38.23.9.12 South, 142.28.52.887. (2) the date for “Exports and Imports for the Year Ending 30th June 1875” is different to the period mentioned by Cr. King in the sub committee’s Report of recommendation “returns of exports and imports for 1874”. The information required to have the figures for the end of June 1875 would need to have been compiled very quickly for the Tablet to be ready for the opening of the Philadelphia Exhibition on 10 May 1876.

Established a Municipality in 1855, and Created a Borough 1863. Population in 1875 4,500. Warrnambool is the nearest Port to Melbourne on the Western Seaboard, being about 160 miles distant. Coaches run to and from the Metropolis daily, in connexion [connection] with the Railway of Geelong and Steamers belonging to Local Companies sail between Melbourne, Warrnambool, Belfast [renamed Port Fairy], and Portland several times weekly. The Harbour is known as Lady Bay, and is partially protected by a reef of rocks stretching from the mouth of the Hopkins River. The formation of a Breakwater has been decided upon by the Government, to extend 600 yards, at an estimated cost of £100,000. There are two substantial Jetties, one of 800 and the other of 600 feet in length. The former is connected with the Town by means of a Tramroad, along which Goods, inwards & outwards, are conveyed, & the latter has been constructed solely for the purpose of facilitating the transit of material for the formation of the Breakwater. In addition to the trade of the Borough and District, the principal Townships up country receive their supplies from Melbourne and ship their exports through Warrnambool. Potatoes form the staple produce of the district, and the richness of the soil can be estimated by the fact that the Government Statistics for 1875 give as the average yield a return of Seven Tons to the acre. Several thousand acres between Warrnambool and Tower Hill are now being laid down in Potatoes by Tenants who have leased the lands at rates up to £5 per acre for the season 1875-6. Wool, Tallow, hides &c are also largely exported, while the shipments of all descriptions of Farm Produce are annually increasing. Area of Borough, 3362 Acres. Net Annual Value £27,000.

... This is because it relies heavily on secondhand accounts, sensationalized travel logs, and the racial biases of the 1860s. ...
Odd People: Being a Popular Description of Singular Races of Man (1860) is an interesting piece of 19th-century literature. The book was written by Captain Thomas Mayne Reid (1818–1883), a Scots-Irish American novelist and adventurer. He was immensely popular in the mid-to-late 19th century for his boys' adventure novels, tales of the American West, and travelogues. The true first edition was published in London by Routledge, Warne & Routledge in 1860. In the United States, it was published around the same time (1860/1861) by Ticknor and Fields in Boston, and later editions were retitled The Man-Eaters and Other Odd People. The book is an early work of popular ethnology and anthropology, written for a general audience and heavily marketed toward young readers and armchair travelers of the Victorian era.

... Beeton's Book of Household Management (1861), Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes story (A Study in Scarlet, 1887), and an extensive list of popular fiction, children's annuals, and travel guides known as 'Red Guides' throughout the British Empire. ...
The Cruise of The Crazy Jane (published in 1932 by Ward, Lock & Co.) follows young protagonist Vicky and a group of Auckland children on a summer boating and camping holiday aboard a vessel named the Crazy Jane. Set against the local geography of New Zealand including Auckland Harbour and nearby coastal areas the story follows their outdoor excursions, cliff-climbing adventures (such as descending "Jacob's ladder," as depicted in the frontispiece), and holiday mishaps.
