Marc Serge Rivière’s 1995 hardcover, The Governor's Noble Guest, offers a crisp academic look at colonial governance and the elite visitors who shaped Australian history. Published by Melbourne University Press, this 320-page textbook remains a solid reference for students of government and nineteenth-century history.

The boards are square and the binding is firm, opening smoothly for note-taking or display. Pages are bright, with only two pinpoint spots interrupting the otherwise spotless textblock; no underlining, dog-ears, or previous-owner marks.

Ideal for scholars, collectors, or anyone building a focused Australiana shelf, this copy presents as near-new while carrying the patina of nearly three decades. Secure, smoke-free storage ensures a fresh copy ready for immediate reading or gifting.
