Book Description
Excerpt from Curious Facts of Old Colonial Days As the first Bishop of Australia truly remarked, some of the greatest political questions agitating English Society were previously discussed in the Australian Colonies. Englishmen carried thither their love of freedom and their sense of justice. There, less governed by traditionary impulses, provided with more scope for action, and more strongly urged by the brighter future opening before their children, they have ventured not only to arraign the principles sanctioned by venerable antiquity, but have sought the emancipation of their adopted homes from the evils of the past, and have boldly claimed the individual right of Colonists to be free indeed. The present sketches of Australian and Tasmanian history will mark the difficulties of progressionists, and indicate the ultimate triumph of freedom. The reader will be conscious of an era of despotic government, and detect the gradual awakening of a people to its rights.
