John Richardson
Gendarme - The Police Horse
Unpaginated. Large black and white photographs throughout. Gendarme was to be a Police Horse, but he was big and awkward and slow to learn, and it seemed he would never be a trooper's mount. His trainer called him "Ugly Duckling", but he liked Gendarme's calm, quiet nature and patiently began to train the horse. The true story of how Gendarme learned the ways of a Police Horse. Average wear. Blue boards moderately bumped. Dust jacket well-worn with three inch tear at top of front panel near spine and some smallish chunks missing. Despite this, the brightly illustrated dust jacket has the potential to be quite attractive, given some tlc and the addition of a glossy protective sleeve. Book

The book straddles the period of penal establishment and free settlement and relates the influence of those periods on the emerging city. The penal era to 1842 reveals the origins and reasons for the settlement and the effect of the convict years on its growth its buildings and facilities and the people including the Aborigines. The post-penal period from 1842 shows the importance of land sales on the economy and the increase in warehouse and trade facilities. Immigration became an important factor -- 1842 to 1846 saw the phasing out of the convict heritage while the subsequent period to 1854 reveals the rising hopes of the young city'. First edition.
