WESTERN AUSTRALIAA HISTORYFROM ITS DISCOVERY TO THEINAUGURATION OF THECOMMONWEALTHBYJ. S. BATTYE, LITT. D. PUBLIC LIBRARIAN OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA. OXFORDAT THE CLARENDON PRESS1. OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS. LONDON, EDINBURGH, GLASGOW, COPENHAGEN, NEW YORK, TORONTO, MELBOURNE, CAPE TOWN, BOMBAY, CALCUTTA, MADRAS, SHANGHAI. HUMPHREY MILFORD PUBLISHER TO THE UNIVERSITY. PREFACE. In view of the prominent part taken by Australia in the recent war, and the enthusiasm which the achievements of the Australian Forces have aroused throughout the Empire, the story of one of the great States of the Australian Commonwealth may not be without some general interest. The work has been the result of over twenty years research, undertaken, in the first instance, in conjunction with the Registrar General Mr. M. A. C. Fraser and his Deputy Mr. W. Siebenhaar for the purpose of checking the historical introduction to the Year Book of Western Australia. It has since been continued in the hope that it may prove a contribution of more or less value to the history of colonial development. In the prosecution of the work, the files of the Public Record Office, London, were searched, and copies made of all documents that could be found which related to the establishment and early years of the colony. These copies are now in the possession of the Public Library of Western Australia, which contains also most of the published matter in the way of books and pamphlets dealing with the colony, as well as almost complete files of the local newspapers to date, and the original records of the Colonial Secretarys Office up to 1. All of these have been at my disposal. I have had, further, the opportunity of consulting official documents of the Government, and, by permission of the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies, secured through the kindness of his Excellency Sir F. A. Newdegate, have had access to all dispatches from the Colonial Office to the colonial authorities up to the year 1. So far as possible every statement has been verified by documentary evidence, and every care exercised to make the whole work strictly accurate. In addition to those mentioned, I have to express my obligation to the heads of Government Departments, more especially to the Under Secretary for Lands, Mr. C. G. Morris, and the Surveyor General, Mr. H. S. King to the Honourable J. W. Kirwan, M. L. C, for information concerning the federal movement in Western Australia to Professor Ernest Scott and Dr. R. C. Mills for much helpful criticism and to Miss M. E. Wood, of the Public Library of Western Australia, for invaluable assistance in checking references and in preparing the manuscript. J. S. B. PERTH.
