What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"This book is much more than a biography of Matthew Everingham, it is a valuable reference work on the First Fleet and the conditions in Eng- land responsible for the establishment of a convict settlement in N.S.W.; the early period of settlement at Sydney and in the Hawkes- bury district." (flyleaf of paper cover of v. 1). Matthews James Everingham (1769-1817) was sent to New South Wales as a convict in 1788, and married Elizabeth Rimes (Rymes), another convict immigrant, in 1791. After their terms were served, they settled on land near the Hawkesbury River. Vol. 2 (of the trilogy) tells of Matthew and the first generation of his descendants as they developed the Hawkesbury River settlement.
