Michael Davitt was a prominent & influential figure in Irish politics in the 19th century. A fervent supporter of Irish independence, he was imprisoned more than once in England, but later became a Member of Parliament for Irish constituencies. In this book, Davitt records a journey of seven months through the Australasian colonies, noting his impressions of the areas he passed through & discussing the political & social norms across the different regions. He examines land laws in many of the areas & describes the different industries then emerging. He also reports on the treatment of aborigines, ranging from 'exterminating the aborigines' in Tasmania to the 'efforts to protect them' in Western Australia, & finally focuses on prisons & prisoner welfare across the colonies he visited. This book offers a wealth of information on many aspects of 19th-century Australasia.
