BAKER, John R.
The Northern New Hebrides.
21 pages, including sketch maps. Plus photographic plates. 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. An intimate first-hand perspective with fascinating anthropological and ethographic details of the unusual Sakau culture in the islands of Espiritu Santo and Gaua, particularily in the northeastern peninsula of the former island which is called Sakau. It examines the life of the cheerful and remarkably honest native people, the Melanesians, who lived almost precisely the life that their ancestors lived. With sketch maps, showing inhabited and uninhabited villages, as well as Hog Harbour, a village in northeast Santo so-named by explorers who were in awe of the abundance of pigs. A informative description of the Hebrides and a remarkably engaging travel account.

BAKER. John. R.
Espiritu Santo, New Hebrides.
25 pages. Plus photographic plates and a fold-out colour map. 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. A fascinating travel expedition account of the tropical Pacific islands designated the 'New Hebrides.' The Oxford University Scientific Expedition's two-fold remit was to ascend and survey the region's highest mountain and to study the breeding seasons of a selection of the area's indigenous animals. Having designated Santo Peak as the region's highest mountain, the party performed various reconaissance surveys, took barometer and odometer readings, made a collection of insects despite the heavy rain as well as a good collection of plants, featured among them several orchid species - and provided a description of its summit. Having selected five animals (the parrot, lizard, fruit-bat, insectivorous bat and the passerine bird) for a detailed study of breeding seasons, various observations were recorded. Features detail of the local Sakau people and appendices relating to exploration of the Tawoli river, the birds of Espiritu Santo, survey equipment employed and regional geology.

Barigh, M. (Pioneer of Perth, Western Australia)
ALS Concerning Drought, Poverty, and Land Value.
Manuscript Signed Letter, dated 21 January 1897, discussing matters pertaining to the settlement era of Perth, Western Australia. 8vo. Two double-leafs, 5 pages. Very good condition. Fascinating content such as a poverty, drought, general health issues in Perth from the conditions, problems of the homeless, and in contrast the increase in land values, and prospects for youngsters, The writer also talks of the Music Society and of singing the Messiah at Christmas. Written by M. Barigh of Havelock Street, her home located on a hill above the central town, who may have been a relative of Richard Henry Barigh, an immigrant to Australia, possibly originally as a convict. Excerpts from the letter: "Lately we have had a water famine and all day long the water is cut off but we fill a tank and so it does not cause us much inconvenience... We do not like W.A. half so much as N.Z. it is too hot and dry and this town is not healthy." "The place must have grown half since we came and building is going on all the time and the values of property increasing - our land cost about four pounds a foot and a lady has just bought this piece adjoining ours and given over eleven pounds for it and thinks she has got it cheap." "There are scores of people here with nothing who a little while since in Melbourne were living in luxury." End Excerpts. Perth had only been established since 1829. In 1850, Western Australia was opened to convicts at the request of farming and business people looking for cheap labour. Queen Victoria announced the city status of Perth in 1856.
