I am a Sydney resident and know the Hawkesbury river well. We owned a holiday house near the mouth of the river for many years. There are still many miles of river and foreshore inside a National Park and it is not diificult to travel up the river by boat and to imagine the situation that faced the Thornhills and other early settlers. For Australians, the conflict between the "blacks" and whites remains an issue even to-day with our prison population reflecting the disadvantaged position of our indigenous population. Alcohol and poor education outcomes despite huge allocation of funds by government to overcome the problems simply doesnt work. I enjoyed the book immensly not least the descriptions of life in London in the late 1700s and early 1800s. The gap between rich and poor is very clearly highlighted and for many "lifers" Australia with all its injustices was a welcomre relief.
