Jardine is a book written by the Jardine brothers, who were Australian explorers and pioneers. The book describes their journey from Rockhampton, Queensland to Somerset, Cape York Peninsula, which they undertook in 1864. The expedition was a difficult one, as they had to navigate through harsh terrain, including dense rainforests, treacherous rivers, and steep mountains. The Jardine brothers also had to contend with hostile Indigenous tribes and tropical diseases. Despite these challenges, they managed to complete their journey in just over six months, becoming the first Europeans to cross the Australian continent from south to north. The book is a vivid account of their adventures, and provides valuable insights into the history of Australian exploration and settlement. It is an essential read for anyone interested in Australian history, geography, and adventure.December' 7.--Leaving the nine horses hobbled to feed near the water the Brothers separated, one taking up and the other down the river to look for the others, in hopes that they might also have turned back, but met again in the afternoon, each without success. Starting back (with the nine recovered yesterday) at about two o'clock, they returned to the camp, where fresh troubles awaited them. Only two of the others had been found, and the party with the pack-horses had succeeded in losing the mule, together with his pack.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
