| Journal of Landsborough’s expedition from Carpentaria
in search of Burke & Wills - 1862
William Landsborough
In 1861 the Queensland Government sent William Landsborough by sea to the site of Burketown, from where he was to head south searching for the overdue Burke and Wills.
He didn’t find the ill-fated explorers, but he did discover rich pastoral country including Barkly Tableland.
His account of this expedition was first published in Melbourne in 1862.
Introduction by Valmai Hankel, Senior Rare Books Librarian, State Library of South Australia.
