    Tourist’s Bureau, for his kindness in facilitating my travels, while I can only apologize to my Tasmanian friends that in return for their hospi- tality I have only these imperfect sketches to offer. The illustrations in this book are partly from photographs and drawings of my own, or made under my direction, while many are borrowed from Mr. Beattie of Hobart, who has kindly permitted their reproduction here. The drawing of the Tiger is a composite drawing by Mr. Bayzand of Oxford, partly after Gould and partly from my own suggestions, while that of the Devil by Mr. Goodchild is from a living specimen in the Zoological Society’s Gardens, by permission of Dr. Chalmers Mitchell.
