The Official Handbook of Tasmania is a comprehensive guidebook that was compiled in 1892 under the instructions of the government of Tasmania, a colony of Australia at the time. The book was written by Thomas C. Just and provides a detailed description of the geography, history, economy, and social life of Tasmania.The handbook is organized into several sections, each of which covers a specific topic. The first section provides an overview of the colony, including its history, geography, climate, and natural resources. The second section focuses on the economy of Tasmania, including its agriculture, mining, and manufacturing industries.The third section of the book is dedicated to the social life of Tasmania, including its education system, religion, and cultural institutions. The fourth section provides information on the government and political system of the colony, including its legal system and parliamentary structure.Throughout the book, Just provides detailed descriptions of the various towns and cities in Tasmania, as well as the natural landmarks and tourist attractions that can be found throughout the colony. He also includes maps and illustrations to help readers better understand the geography and layout of Tasmania.Overall, The Official Handbook of Tasmania provides a fascinating glimpse into life in Tasmania in the late 19th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of this unique Australian colony.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
