Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Adelaide, Andrew Murray, Printer, Rundle-Street (Sold by C. Platts, Bookseller, Hindley-Street .), [1845]. Octavo, xii (last blank), 106 pages plus a folding plate, but lacking the folding frontispiece map noted by Ferguson. Later period-style quarter calf and marbled boards; folding plate later expertly backed with paper, stabilising a tear, some chips and slight loss (all confined to the left-hand edge); scattered foxing (generally light); a very good copy. The State Library of South Australia has a copy of this item with the map (and it's a beauty - a hand-coloured lithograph, 322 × 213 mm, produced in 'Goodwood nr Adelaide' in 1845). However, reading between the lines, a case may be made for stating that not all copies were issued with the map. Its absence here notwithstanding, this is by any account a very rare publication, and worthy of serious consideration on at least two counts. The folding plate is an etching (paper size approximately 220 × 280 mm) of 'Ridley's Reaping Machine. S. Australia', signed and dated in the plate 'NRF 1845'. The artist is Frederick Robert Nixon (circa 1817-1860), who arrived in Adelaide in May 1838 to take up a position as assistant surveyor. In 1845, he published 'Twelve Views in Adelaide and its Vicinity, South Australia. Drawn, etched, and printed by F.R. Nixon'; it was the earliest South Australian plate book. He was a self-taught artist who 'had to manufacture all his machinery for preparing and pressing his etchings . [they] are superior as works of art, and accurately as well as pleasingly depict the scenes which they represent ('The South Australian', 21 February 1845). Nixon left Adelaide in May 1846, bound for Mauritius, where he died in 1860. Kerr's 'The Dictionary of Australian Artists' (1992) records that the Ridley etching was the only other one he is known to have produced. There is a lengthy chapter (10 pages) on the Aboriginal inhabitants, and the chapter on horticulture contains seven pages on vines and wine-making, with the information credited to M. Vaillant (see page 58). The bright green wrappers (not present in this copy) confirm 1845 as the date of publication. Ferguson 4014.…
