The most important novel of Australia published in the 19th century. The author's name is misspelt "Bolderwood" on both title and binding. When considering rarities among Victorian three-deckers this book must be included. The Duchess of Cleveland's copy with her bookplate; also her name on title of each volume. The front endpaper of Volume II is cracked; otherwise a superb copy.
