This two volume set on the "Jubilee History is Tasmania" is one of his noted works. Fully titled "The Jubilee History of Tasmania: Illustrated wes and "Australian Representative Men". This work does indeed cover both Tasmania and Victoria, as well as incorporating the author's earlier volume the "Australian Representative Men".
