Pub Year 1968, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Ludwig Leichhardt is primarily recognised as a leading scientific explorer of Australia. His vibrant yet detailed letters document his life from his student years in the mid-1830s until his mysterious disappearance in the Australian interior in 1848. Leichhardt had a keen interest in natural philosophy, particularly biology, geology, and geography. He meticulously recorded various aspects of his surroundings, offering insights into the social life of early Victorian England while reflecting on prominent thinkers and philosophers of his time. His educational pursuits in Germany, England, Paris, and Naples were designed to prepare him for his role as a scientific explorer, a goal he carefully planned alongside his close friend, William Nicholson, before embarking on his journey to Australia in 1841.Volume 2 of this work focuses on Leichhardt's scientific reconnaissance in eastern Australia, which he undertook alone over a span of two years. The final volume chronicles his significant explorations, including a successful expedition to Port Essington in northern Australia. During this journey, he explored the region's topography, geology, and botany, alongside his two attempts to traverse the continent from east to west. Tragically, during his last expedition in 1848, Leichhardt and his party vanished without a trace.Mr Aurousseau has compiled all known letters of Leichhardt, translating those originally composed in German, French, or Italian. He provides an overview of Leichhardt's life, a chronology of his movements, and a bibliography of works related to him, contributing to the understanding of a man who has captivated historians and explorers alike.

"Ludwig Leichhardt is chiefly known as the most important of the scientific explores of Australia. His lively but detailed letters provide a narrative of his life from his student years (Germany, England, Paris and Naples) in the mid 1830's until 1848 when he disappeared in the Australian interior". The Hakluyt Society was founded in 1846 in London for the publication of primary sources of exploration and discovery expeditions. They were named after Richard Hakluyt (1552-1616) a collector and editor of narratives of voyages and travels. The publications are primarily from English expeditions related to English interests from the 17th century on. These volumes cover the early search for the North West Passage through Hudson Bay, which was determined not to lead to the Pacific Ocean.…
