The Lost Tasmanian Race is a book written by James Bonwick and published in 1884. The book explores the history and culture of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people, who were believed to have been extinct by the time of its publication. Bonwick draws on historical records, personal accounts, and his own observations to paint a picture of a people who were once numerous and thriving, but who were decimated by European colonization and violence. He describes their customs, beliefs, and way of life, as well as their interactions with European settlers and the devastating impact of disease, violence, and displacement on their communities. The book also includes illustrations and maps to help readers visualize the landscape and people of Tasmania. Overall, The Lost Tasmanian Race is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a little-known chapter in Australia's colonial past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
