Book Description
Excerpt from Crozet's Voyage to Tasmania, New Zealand, the Ladrone Islands, and the Philippines in the Years 1771-1772 Mr. Henry Ling Roth, the translator and editor of this work, has brought before the public the complete narrative of an event which, at the period of its occurrence, attracted great attention throughout the civilized world. It is therefore the more surprising that, amid the numerous collections of Voyages and Travels published during the last century, this Voyage to the South Seas, full of interest as it is, has not received the full attention of the English translator until now. The discovery of a practically new hemisphere in the Southern Seas, and the progress of settlement there having been the theme of a long series of histories in the several languages of Europe, it is unnecessary to tread in so beaten a track by the recital of occurrences of which few can be ignorant; but at the same time no account of Australasian exploration would be complete without a general reference to the great work performed prior to the discoveries of the French, with which this work deals. In the year 1642 an expedition was fitted out by the Governor-General of the Netherlands-India, Antony van Diemen, for the purpose of exploring the Coast of the Australian Continent, which had been sighted by previous adventurers, the command being entrusted to Abel Jansen Tasman.

Book Description
Undiscovered Tasmania is your travel guide to the real Tasmania. Beyond the usual tourist attractions, this small island is brimming with special places to see and experience, and locals Rochelle and Wally Dare are here to let visitors in on their secrets. This isn’t your typical guidebook. Rochelle and Wally will take you deep into the Corinna Wilderness, along stretches of beautiful beaches and to their favourite places to camp. Sections include 'Beaches We Barefoot' (but NOT including Wineglass Bay), 'Roads We Trip', 'Towns We Explore' and 'Wildlife We Respect'. There's also advice for travelling on Tasmanian roads, a road toolkit, stories of locals and a focus on Tassie’s burgeoning food scene, from farm-to-plate restaurants to the best fish and chips in the state. Many experiences are uniquely Tasmanian like the Floating Sauna on Lake Derby, while the diversity of landscapes include the moon-like mining town of Queenstown and the rolling green hills of King Island that make it so perfect for dairy products. Featuring Rochelle's stunning photography throughout, this guide will take you to those places that fly under the radar, but represent the ultimate travel destinations across the Apple Isle. They're hidden gems and places that Rochelle and Wally hold dear in their hearts.
