- catalog abstract ""In the last twenty-five years of the nineteenth century, around two hundred thousand visitors from Australia landed in Britain. As members of the colonial elite, they sailed to the Old Country to experience their Britishness: they toured Westminster Abbey; they visited graves of parents; they threw snowballs at Christmas. As one visitor expressed it on arrival in London in 1889: 'Spotted St. Pauls in the distance & felt at home.'" "Colonial Australians were British, but not of Britain, and their diaries and letters offer a distinctive insight into nineteenth-century Britain. Through Australian Eyes makes for fascinating reading for anyone interested in personal testimony, travel writing, national identity, and the cultural histories of both Britain and Australia."--Jacket.".
