This book contains letters written in the early 19th century by James and George Scott, surveyors and early Tasmanian explorers, to their brother Thomas when he returned from Van Diemen's Land to live in Scotland. Thomas left behind substantial property interests in Van Diemen's Land / Tasmania which James continued to manage and wrote to keep him informed, as did George concerning Mount Morriston. The letters began in 1836 and continued until Thomas's death in 1855.
