Abstract
THE three volumes of studies of the natives of Central Australia which were published by Prof. Baldwin Spencer and the late Mr. F. J. Gillen, required for their completion some account of the natives of that portion of the continent which stretches northward to the shores of the Arafura Sea. This natural sequel, an account of the people of the Northern Territory, is to be found in the new and valuable record, dedicated to the memory of. his dead colleague, which has just been written by Prof. Spencer. With the experience gained in his previous investigations, the author has produced an excellent volume, which is in every way equal to its forerunners in anthropological interest, in scientific value, and in clear description of another group of the totally uncivilised tribes of Australia.
