Journal of a Voyage to New South Wales

Scientific Travellers 1790-1877 Volume 1

About this book

There have always been more or less scientific travellers, but a new epoch began with the voyages of Captain James Cook. His first, on board the converted Whitby Collier HMS Endeavour, was the result of cooperation between the Admiralty and the Royal Society. This series only skims the surface of the rich collections of scientific travel books in the library of the Natural History Museum. From this volume we learn much about the voyage of the first fleet, the first desperate years of the colony in Sydney, and the exploration of its neighbourhood.
