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.

A richly detailed account of the culture of Aboriginal Tasmanians, compiled in 1899 from earlier sources.
