Dealer Notes
Cf. Denucé 932. Gregory’s booklet was expanded from his Presidential address to the Geographical Section of the Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science given at Dunedin, 11th January, 1904. The author makes reference to the region’s proximity to the Antarctic to illuminate aspects of its climate, citing soundings and temperature observations by the Challenger, Valdivia and Gauss. The first sketch map shows Antarctica.
