18848vo. 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.
