Anthony Trollope, the famous English novelist whose books illuminate virtually every aspect of late nineteenth century England, also wrote travel books. In 1873 he published 'New South Wales and Queensland.
This book includes descriptions of various places in the states of New South Wales and Queensland. These are quite detailed and usually start with the founding of naming of the place, and continue through their early history. A great read for all those interested in early colonial history of New South Wales and Queensland
