Early Australian History: Convict Life in New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, in Two Parts by Charles White, first published in 1889.Series of Historical Sketches, upon Australian Colonization and Convict Life in New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land.Van Diemen's Land was the original name used by most Europeans for the island of Tasmania, now part of Australia.
