The Overland Expedition Of The Messrs. Jardine is a non-fiction book written by the Jardine brothers that chronicles their journey across Australia in the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of the Jardine brothers' expedition from Rockhampton in Queensland to Cape York in the far north of Australia. The journey was fraught with danger, as they had to navigate through treacherous terrain, hostile indigenous tribes, and extreme weather conditions.The book is divided into chapters that describe the different stages of the journey, detailing the challenges that the Jardine brothers faced and the strategies they employed to overcome them. The book also provides insights into the flora and fauna of the region, as well as the customs and traditions of the indigenous people they encountered.The Overland Expedition Of The Messrs. Jardine is a valuable historical document that provides a first-hand account of one of the most challenging expeditions in Australian history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Australian history, exploration, and adventure.December' 7.--Leaving the nine horses hobbled to feed near the water the Brothers separated, one taking up and the other down the river to look for the others, in hopes that they might also have turned back, but met again in the afternoon, each without success. Starting back (with the nine recovered yesterday) at about two o'clock, they returned to the camp, where fresh troubles awaited them. Only two of the others had been found, and the party with the pack-horses had succeeded in losing the mule, together with his pack.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
