WILLIAMS, W. Wynne
The Barkly Tableland of North Australia: with Special Reference to Further Pastoral Settlement.
12 pages, including 2 in-text sketch maps. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a most fascinating expedition report on the Barkly Tableland of North Australia, including a geographical study of the Mitchell grass lands and prairies of Central Queensland, the Lake Nash area, the well-known holding of Avon Downs, the natural and artificial courses of water, and also the sheep pastures. Some of the sheep were brought from Vandelin Island and their health improved dramatically as a result. Williams discusses the possibility of more sheep raising on this tableland, and supports his theory with a brief summary of the usage of the roads and railways and also on the Pastoral Settlement within the Northern Country in the preceding 50 years, while making suggestions for possible improvements.

WILLIS ROXANNE
Alaska's Place In The West: From The Last Frontier To The Last Great Wilderness
University Press of Kansas: . Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. From Sarah Palin's surprising rise to political stardom to recurring environmental battles over oil drilling in the arctic and public works projects like the Bridge to Nowhere the remote state of Alaska continues to occupy center stage in the national spotlight. Yet for most Americans the history of this sparsely populated region remains a vast unknown. Roxanne Willis takes readers behind common and simplistic representations of the state to explore the rich history and extreme diversity of a land that cannot easily be pigeonholed into typical American conceptions about place. Alaska's story is usually confined to regional history books and in many American history texts the state simply disappears after the Klondike gold rush. Willis's book marks the first comprehensive examination of Alaskan development schemes from 1890 to the present connecting these plans to the changing priorities of American culture and politics. She examines competing definitions of Alaska�from a "Last Frontier" meant to be exploited to a "Last Wilderness" to be protected at all costs�and explains how the contemporary Alaskan landscape is a result of this ongoing struggle to define this mythic state's place in the American West. Willis focuses on five historic battles between environmentalists and developers: the Alaska Native reindeer herding industry the New Deal homesteader program in the Matanuska Colony the construction of the Alaska Highway the political dispute over the Rampart Dam and the ongoing struggles over the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. She presents these case histories in clear language that will engage general readers while using new historical analysis that will appeal to scholars of environmental history and the American West. The result is an effective introduction to the historical origins of current political conflicts in Alaska. Transcending the typical regional histories of the state Willis's study shows how Alaska development schemes have affected the history of American development more broadly with conclusions that will be useful to anyone interested in environment and development issues in America or the circumpolar North�including a consideration of Alaska as the new frontier in global climate change. By showing why Alaska continues to resonate in the American imagination Willis's book situates the forty-ninth state within the environmental movement within the definition of the American West and within American culture as a whole.

Winnecke, C.
Mr. C. Winnecke's Last Explorations in the Northern Territory, South Australia.
8vo. 4 pages, plus a folding colour map which measures 11.5 inches x 8 inches and shows details of Winnecke's survey work in Central Australia from August to December 1883. This is a complete issue of the Royal Geographical Society, published October 1884, in excellent condition, containing the above narrative, and historically valuable map. Item is in original condition, with blue wrappers, as issued, complete with all the ads. A succinct and informative account accompanies the map, revealing that this territory, near the western Queensland boundary, was previously unknown, indicated only as a vast blank space on maps. Winnecke quickly found the task of exploring and surveying the region was most onerous, yet persevered to success - the map here being the first of the area. The text makes specific reference to notes in Winnecke's diary, in one instance being forced to dig a deep well, due to the extreme scarcity of water for the camels. As well as charting the land, Winnecke names peaks, collects plenty of flora, and observes fauna. Still in the midst of exploring while this account was published, Surveyor-General G. W. Goyder of the Australia colony submits the paper for dispatching, thus published here.
