Summary

'This book is a simple one, though it does not deal with trivial things. It is offered as a contribution to Australian literature : reflections on travel, literature and science. There are two sections in the book: Travel notes from an Australian viewpoint, which I have put firsts; and Science notes, which I have put second; with two or three chapters that are of neither travel nor science.' [Excerpt of Foreward by the author]
