Provenance: Robert Muir Old & Rare Books, Perth (Catalogue 74, 1981, #517); ex Peter Dodds (1929-1980) Peter Dodds was a notable Australian antiquarian book collector and antique dealer, Melbourne-born but based in Perth from 1949, and later York, Western Australia, from 1976. See: Australian book collectors : some noted Australian book collectors & collections of the nineteenth & twentieth centuries / edited by Charles Stitz, volume 1, pp 97-98 (Bendigo : Bread Street Press, 2010).

It was catholic in taste and direction, though Peter himself had a great knowledge of, and appreciation for, such areas as maritime and land history and exploration (with a bias to Bligh's Bounty); the convict era; limited editions; early domestic furniture and appliances; and by no means least, West Australiana .
