About The Cyclopedia of New South Wales, 1907

Cyclopedias were published for most Australian states around the beginning of the 20th century. In this one, you’ll find entries on the history and people of New South Wales, including hundreds of biographies (many about ordinary citizens) and almost 900 photos, most of them of people. Along with history and biography, this cyclopedia also touches on culture, geography, business and industries, government and social institutions, schools, the military, and much more. This volume includes special sections on Newcastle and Maitland.
