Michael Cannon’s Vagabond Country opens a window on Victorian-era Australia, matching eyewitness “vagabond” reports with rare engravings to show how bush workers, town swells and Indigenous communities really lived. This first edition hardcover gathers the liveliest anecdotes from the popular series, making it an ideal starter for readers curious about colonial Australia beyond the gold-rush headlines.

The 1981 volume arrives intact: crisp pages, tight binding, bright dust jacket with only light shelf rub, no inky gifts or dog-eared corners. Illustrated throughout, it doubles as a visual reference for students of Australiana, costume, or 19th-century social history.

Collectors prize Cannon’s accessible style; families enjoy the true short stories that read like adventure yarns. A clean, smoke-free copy ready for gifting or shelf display.
