Port Phillip Diary 9 October 1803 - 31 January 1804

 Author: KNOPWOOD, ROBERT

ISBN: 9780949586124


 Knopwood's diary of the period from Collin's landing until his departure for Van Diemen's Land in January 1804, is one of the few surviving accounts of the settlement. It records attempts by the settlers to find fresh water, the exploration of the bay; the escape of convicts; the mutinous mood of the marines; armed clashes between the colonists and the local Aborigines, and many details of daily life in the camp.
