Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Albert Frederick Calvert (1872-1946) wrote The Aborigines of Western Australia (1892) and Granada, Present and Bygone (1908). "Any attempt to fathom the depth of mystery which surrounds the history of the Australian Aboriginal must necessarily be-in the main-a failure. The subject is surrounded with difficulty. Captain Dampier was the first Englishman known to have made the acquaintance of the Australian natives, whom he calls "the poor winking people of New Holland, the miserablest people on earth, " and so forth. During the intervening two centuries we have not added much to our knowledge regarding them. They have no written language, and are forbidden to speak of the dead: two serious obstacles to research. "

This is a pre-1923 historical reproduction that was curated for quality. Quality assurance was conducted on each of these books in an attempt to remove books with imperfections introduced by the digitization process. Though we have made best efforts - the books may have occasional errors that do not impede the reading experience. We believe this work is culturally important and have elected to bring the book back into print as part of our continuing commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide.
