Sketch of the History of Van Diemen's Land: And an Account of the Van Diemen's Land Company is a historical book written by James Bischoff in 1832. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of Van Diemen's Land, which is now known as Tasmania. It covers the early exploration of the island by European explorers, the establishment of the first settlements, and the interactions between the settlers and the indigenous population.The latter part of the book focuses on the Van Diemen's Land Company, a private company established in the early 19th century with the aim of developing the island's resources. Bischoff provides a detailed account of the company's operations, including its attempts to establish a wool industry and its interactions with the local Aboriginal population.Overall, Sketch of the History of Van Diemen's Land is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Tasmania and the early European settlement of Australia. It provides a unique perspective on the interactions between settlers and indigenous populations during this time and sheds light on the economic and social developments that shaped the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
