Series. Journals of Isaac Sharp, July 1878 - November 1883
There are two series of journals covering Sharp's travels in Australia and New Zealand in 1880-1882. The second series (vols. 53-61) appears to be partly a memorandum book, in which Sharp made notes about people whom he met, letters he received, and information taken from books and newspapers.

The legibility of the journals is poor and, in particular, some pages in volumes 33-40 are illegible.
