New Map of Australia Compiled from the latest nautical surveys made by order of the Admiralty
Nice example of Wyld's splendid folding map of Australia. First published in the early 1830s, it proved extremely popular and was regularly updated and re-issued. This is one of the later examples. It shows the far more developed infrastructure on the continent, such as a railway running from New South Wales to Victoria and a telegraph line laid south to north. A seminal map. Original colour.
