Relying on autobiographical documents, this book analyses what Australians read in the 19th century, as well as what they wrote, in terms of personal and everyday, non-literary writings. It emphasises the Britishness of colonial society, without forgetting specifically Australian inflections of readers’ responses. Australian reading embraced wide-ranging tastes.
