""The Southlanders"" is a book written by Mary Fox, originally published in 1860. It is a first-hand account of an expedition to the interior of New Holland (now known as Australia) that took place in the mid-19th century. The book follows the journey of a group of explorers as they navigate through the rugged terrain of the Australian outback, encountering various indigenous peoples and wildlife along the way. The author, Mary Fox, was a member of the expedition and provides a detailed and vivid description of the journey, including the challenges faced by the explorers such as extreme weather conditions, lack of food and water, and dangerous encounters with wild animals. She also provides insight into the customs and culture of the indigenous people they encountered, as well as their interactions with them. Overall, ""The Southlanders"" is a fascinating historical account of an early exploration of the Australian interior and provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by early explorers and the rich cultural diversity of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
