The Remarkable Mr and Mrs Johnson
Author: Toby Raeburn
Publisher: Australian Scholarly Publishing
ISBN: 1922952796
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
The British invasion and colonisation of Aboriginal Australia were brutal processes that caused immense suffering. But how should otherwise good people who contributed to such events be remembered? With this question in mind, The Remarkable Mr and Mrs Johnson, explores the lives of colonial New South Wales’ pioneer chaplain, the Reverend Richard Johnson, and his wife Mary. Drawing heavily on eighteenth and nineteenth-century sources, the book traces early influences that led the Johnsons to join the First Fleet, then describes their pioneering work in the colony, founding the first schools, building the first church, and pioneering British charity. Amid the suffering caused by the British invasion, the Johnsons also built a remarkable friendship with a young Aboriginal girl named Boorong, who became an influential intermediary during the early years of colonisation. Their lives have something to teach us about adaptation, survival, and humility.

Revealing the diversity of Aboriginal life in the Sydney region, this study examines a variety of source documents that discuss not only Aboriginal life before colonization in 1788 but also the early years of first contact.

This updated edition has been revised to include recent discoveries and the analyses of the past seven years, adding yet more value to this 2004 winner of the John Mulvaney award for best archaeology book from the Australian Archaeological Association.

Book Description
This series explains the many important aspects of the colonial Economy of N.S.W. between 1788 and 1835.

A Collection of Essays on the Colonial Economy of N.S.W.
Author: Gordon Beckett
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1466927771
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This series explains the many important aspects of the colonial Economy of N.S.W. between 1788 and 1835. This present volume sets down over 14 essays on aspects of the colonial economy, ranging from a short review of the Van Diemen's Land Company - the second land grant coy in Australia - the AAC being the first, to a study of the writings of Professor Noel Butlin and the factors of economic growth in those important first 30 years of the colony and settlement in NSW. Some notable essays include an understanding of the Macquarie years that set a standard for economic development that became hard to follow. The many statutes enacted by Westminster Parliament in establishing the colony are examined as is the rise of the pastoralist and squatter in the colony. These entire special features of the economy helped set up the economic drivers that created such a successful economy.
