There Can Be Little Doubt That When My Great-Grandfather Began
To Write This Book, His Thoughts Were Centred On The Objective
Which He Describes In His Own Preface--The Diversion To Australia
Of Some Part Of The Stream Of Emigration Then Running From The
British Isles To North America. Perhaps, Even More Urgently, He
May Have Wanted To Forestall Any British Tendency To Withdraw
From The Colony And Abandon New South Wales Altogether.
