Oceana or England And her Colonies
By James Anthony Froude
Published by Longmans, Green & Co: London 1886

Mainly covers Australia, but with smaller sections about New Zealand, USA and South Africa. New edition 1886. Preface dated 1885.

"James Anthony Froude (1818 - 1894) was an English historian, novelist, biographer, and editor of Fraser's Magazine. From his upbringing amidst the Anglo-Catholic Oxford Movement, Froude intended to become a clergyman, but doubts about the doctrines of the Anglican church, published in his scandalous 1849 novel The Nemesis of Faith, drove him to abandon his religious career. Froude turned to writing history, becoming one of the best-known historians of his time for his History of England from the Fall of Wolsey to the Defeat of the Spanish Armada."
