An Expedition Into Central Australia is a book written by Charles Sturt, an explorer and surveyor who led several expeditions into the interior of Australia in the 19th century. The book describes Sturt's journey into the heart of the continent in 1844-1845, during which he and his team explored the vast and arid regions of central Australia, encountering harsh conditions, extreme temperatures, and hostile indigenous tribes. Sturt's expedition was one of the first to penetrate deep into the Australian interior, and his account provides a fascinating insight into the geography, flora, and fauna of this remote and largely unexplored region. The book includes detailed descriptions of the landscapes, the rivers and waterholes, the plants and animals, and the indigenous people that Sturt encountered on his journey. An Expedition Into Central Australia is also a testament to Sturt's courage, determination, and leadership skills, as he and his team faced numerous challenges and dangers during their months-long journey. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the early exploration of Australia and the challenges faced by the pioneers who ventured into its uncharted territories.A few days after we had settled ourselves at the Depot, Mr. Browne had a serious attack of illness, that might have proved fatal; but it pleased God to restore him to health and reserve him for future usefulness. At this time, too, the men generally complained of rheumatism, and I suspected that I was not myself altogether free from that depressing complaint, since I had violent pains in my hip joints; but I attributed them to my having constantly slept on the hard ground, and frequently in the bed of some creek or other. It eventually proved, however, that I had been attacked by a more fearful malady than rheumatism in its worst stage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
