    The Peter Crossing Collection: An Illustrated Catalogue documents one of the natural-history world's most desirable private libraries. A collection of books, original drawings, manuscripts, published plates and ephemera, it offers a rare insight into early European understanding and appreciation of Australia's unique flora and fauna. It also includes important modern watercolours of Australian plants. The Catalogue is a companion volume to Botanical Revelation (2019) by botanist and writer David Mabberley, whose original research presented here again brings out new absorbing stories revealing connections and rivalries between adventurers, authors, artists and engravers, besides their patrons across Europe, before the reign of Queen Victoria. This Catalogue is for lovers of natural history who can now enjoy this enthusiasm for things Australian, revealed in rare and beautiful books and paintings
