Four Years' Travels in Australia, 



AND CAMP LIFE WITH THE ABORIGINES OF 



QUEENSLAND. 



By CARL LUMHOLTZ, M.A., 



Member of the Royal Society of Science of Norway. 

 With Maps, Coloured Plates and 120 Illustrations. Medium Sio. 24s. 



" I have read the book with immense interest and delight. It is a work which will have a 

 very long life, for it is full of useful knowledge. 1 he reader forgets that he is reading a mere 

 description, and thinks that he is at the author's side, in the wilderness of .Australia. The 

 whole civilized world must be grateful for this really wonderful work. "— Z>r. Scliliemann. 



" Mr. Lumholt/. has a very pleasant and modest style of narrative, so that the whole book 

 is as agreeable as it is instructive ; but the portion most attractive from its novelty is that which 

 details his proceeding when, for nearly a year, he lived alone among ' a race of people whose 

 culture— if, indeed, they can be said to have any culture whatever— must be characterised as 

 the lowest to be found among the whole genus homo sapiens.' The volume is one of the most 

 complete of its kind in all respects, and a worthy record of the steadfast enterprise of a hardy 

 Norseman in the Scientific .Age. It should be specially remarked that he effaces himself more 

 than most travellers ; yet we can infer from the style and fine temper of his narrative that he 

 belongs to the higher class of scientific cxx)\ox(tx%." — Spectator. 



" Herr Lumholtz has succeeded in securing to natural science and to the animal and 

 vegetable kingdoms a large and almost unknown domain. .A keen sportsman, an intrepid 

 traveller, but above all a man of science thoroughly trained and equipped for the work he had 

 undertaken, his narrative leaves no point of interest untouched, and the illustrations are such 

 as at once to stimulate and satisfy the grateful reader's curiosity."— ZJrt//)- News.

 written." — Science Gossip.
