Notes: |
The story of the first 35 years of Australia’s existence. From the first landing in 1788 to the departure of Governor Macquarie in 1822. It is a record of constant wrangling, larrikinism and treachery on the part of officers and gentlemen, some famous in Australian history, coupled with not a little downright treason, all of which combined to send successive Governors home broken and despondent men.
