- The Birds of Australia : in seven volumes by John Gould. via lorac's SU pages in Gould, John. National Library of Australia..
Exhibited: "National Treasures from Australia's Great Libraries". Touring exhibition December 2005 - August 2007, organised by the National Library of Australia. AuCNL; Library holds two complete sets at RBN ef F4773 with a supplementary volume published in 1869. The National Library of Australia has digitized all 7 volumes of John Gould's drawings of Australian birds. Of course, this one is my favorite. The Birds of Australia : in seven volumes by John Gould.
Wow! What an impressive work and in the end the author had to self publish!
London : Published by the author, 1848 (London : Printed by Richard and John E. Taylor) It was thus not much better then than now after all... in terms of publishing I mean.
