{"product_id":"a-voyage-to-terra-australis-matthew-flinders-9781849025652","title":"A Voyage to Terra Australis: Volume 1","description":"When Matthew Flinders set out in 1801 to carry out a 'complete examination and survey' of the coast of New Holland, little did he know that he would be away for over ten years. Although he did not coin the term 'Australia' he keenly advocated its use, rather than the clumsy 'Terra Australis' and will always be associated with its adoption. As well as his meticulous surveys and maps, he made many observations on ship-board life, flora and fauna, and the appearance and customs of the native peoples he encountered. Volume 1 starts with a thorough review of previous exploratory voyages to the great Southern continent, and then proceeds to describe the first part of his journey, from Portsmouth to Port Jackson (Sydney).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Flinders\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849025657\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849025652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Benediction Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 454\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.13d","brand":"Matthew Flinders","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43938990653695,"sku":"9781849025652","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a50282af-ef25-4718-bf41-976d6d82fdeb.jpg?v=1681438848","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-voyage-to-terra-australis-matthew-flinders-9781849025652","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
