Tallis's well known map of Victoria, Australia, illustrated with panoramic vignettes of Melbourne and the River Glenelg.
In addition, this edition has been updated to show the newly discovered gold deposits in the region. These have been marked as "gold" and also highlighted with yellow colouring. In many ways, the Australian gold rush rivalled the California Gold Rush of '49.
