Overview

Excerpt from The Discovery of Australia The lectures, which make this book, were given to a class in Sydney University in 1917. The quality of lectures given in an Australian University is determined by the mind of the students only less than by the mind of the lecturer; and with pleasure I take this opportunity to thank the generations Of students, who, for thirty years, have not only made lecturing a happiness, but have also, by kindly appreciation of good intention, well salted with honest witness to evident failure, given reason to do one's best. Chapters I. And VI. Were given as lectures to the Royal Australian Historical Society, and are printed in its journal, Vol. III. Part 10, and Vol. IV. Part 4.
