Early explorations in New South Wales A collection - Richard Hind Cambage John Price

"Early Explorations in New South Wales: A Collection" by Richard Hind Cambage and John Price delves into the adventurous expeditions undertaken in the late 18th century as convicts and explorers ventured into the uncharted territories beyond the Blue Mountains. Led by the ex-convict John Wilson and accompanied by the literate John Price, the party's journey reveals the early encounters with the Australian landscape and its Indigenous peoples. This historical narrative not only uncovers the complexities of exploration and survival but also challenges the myth of the first crossings of the mountains, making it a significant contribution to Australian history.
