Notes on

Troll image by J.P. Hammond 1885Australian Books

In the spirit of my home country, I have listed the Australasia books we currently have for sale. These are misplaced historic books by Australian writers, or works about Australia, New Zealand, Van Deiman's Land, and Oceania which may be of interest to scholars and collectors of Australasia.

Explore indigenous Australia through storytelling, cultures and histories. Theese books may include early stories of Cpt Cook, the Aboriginies, the Maoris. Most sought after is the convict history of Australia. When we find them we include them here. Ned Kelly could tell his story or Bucky Jones.  These books have been transported across the world only to be found now here in my little book store, ready for the collector or scholar to own and study.
