The Land of the Dawning is a book written by William Hughes Willshire and published in 1896. The book is a collection of facts and observations that Willshire gleaned from the cannibalistic tribes of the Australian Stone Age during his travels throughout the continent. The book provides a detailed account of the customs, beliefs, and practices of these tribes, including their methods of hunting and gathering, their social structures, and their rituals and ceremonies. Willshire also offers insights into the natural environment of Australia, including its flora and fauna, and provides a vivid description of the landscape and terrain. Overall, The Land of the Dawning is a fascinating and informative account of a bygone era in Australian history, and offers valuable insights into the lives and cultures of the indigenous peoples who inhabited the continent prior to European colonization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
