An Overland Expedition from Port Denison to Cape York

An Overland Expedition from Port Denison to Cape York is a travelogue by Archibald J. Richardson. It depicts the historical settling of Northern Australia. Excerpt: “The Queensland Government having made arrangements for forming a settlement at Cape York, it became necessary to adopt some plan by means of which Cape York settlers could be supplied with fresh meat and other necessaries. Mr. Frank Jardine then agreed to take a herd of cattle overland to meet the wants of the settlement, and at the same time to open up the unexplored country of the peninsula without going out of his road.”
