Comprehensive, detailed, and fascinating, Henry Ling Roth's The Aborigines of Tasmania charts the life and culture of Aboriginal Tasmanians. Roth's study compiles primary records and observations of this 'lost race', including 'vocabularies' and dialects. It provides rich documentation of original research that remains relevant a century later.

This is the first general edition ever published. Profusely illustrated with a map showing Aboriginal names and a large vocabulary of Aboriginal words.
