Scope and Contents

Scope and Contents
Originally intended as a study in aboriginal trade routes but was expanded to include an attempt to locate sources of raw materials, hunting and fishing grounds, and so on, but the program proved too big and the results were laid aside. It is hoped that at some time it may develop into an ethnological survey and a series of accompanying maps.--J.R.S.
