  • History and Causes of the Extirpation of the Providence Petrel (Pterodroma Solandri) on Norfolk Island
    246 Notornis, 2002, Vol. 49: 246-258 0029-4470 O The Ornithological Society of New Zealand, Inc. 2002 History and causes of the extirpation of the Providence petrel (Pterodroma solandri) on Norfolk Island DAVID G. MEDWAY 25A Norman Street, New Plymouth, New Zealand [email protected] Abstract The population of Providence petrels (Pterodroma solandri) that nested on Norfolk Island at the time of 1st European settlement of that island in 1788 was probably > 1 million pairs. Available evidence indicates that Europeans harvested many more Providence petrels in the years immediately after settlement than previously believed. About 1,000,000 Providence petrels, adults and young, were harvested in the 4 breeding seasons from 1790 to 1793 alone. Despite these enormous losses, many Providence petrels were apparently still nesting on Norfolk Island in 1795 when they are last mentioned in documents from the island. However, any breeding population that may have survived there until 1814 when Norfolk Island was abandoned temporarily was probably exterminated by the combined activities of introduced cats and pigs which had become very numerous by the time the island was re-occupied in 1825.

Maps, illustrations, color plates, appen- dixes, glossary, index. $27.50.) These three books chronicle the adventures of men who ventured into the unknown in what is now becoming recognized as a unique second "Great Age of Discovery." Two of the accounts concern the stories of men sent out on U.S. Government exploring expeditions. A third, the journals of Jacob Nagle, chronicle the remarkable global peregrinations of an American sailor impressed into the British navy at the time of the American Revolution. His adventures in some ways call up memories of Sinbad, the Sailor, though his travels are demonstrably real. For a long time the important literature of exploration in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was compartmentalized into "land" and "sea" categories; scholars made few attempts either to link these exploration narratives to any single cultural process or to see them as more than mere adventure stories.

  • Media Release
    MEDIA RELEASE FOUNDATION DAY AND INTERESTING ITEMS FROM THE COLLECTION This week we celebrated the 231st anniversary of the landing of Lt Philip Gidley King and his party of 22 brave souls (seven freemen and 15 convicts) on Norfolk Island, establishing the first British settlement on the island in March 1788. Notwithstanding that Norfolk Island had been previously settled by Polynesians several centuries prior, Captain James Cook discovered Norfolk Island for the British in 1774. He was entranced by both the beauty of the island and the pine and flax, which showed promise for a lucrative industry for ship building. His reports to the British High Command provided solutions to the many social and economic problems faced by Britain at the time, which included overcrowding of jails; the inability to send convicts to America after the end of the War of Independence; and trade blocks on ship-building materials, such as masts, sails and ropes, which had been put in place by Russia. The British government was also aware of the strong French presence in the South Pacific, which was of great concern, and required a strong naval presence to support British interests in the region. A fleet of 11 ships left Portsmouth, England on 13 May 1787 with the mission to establish colonies in New Holland (now Australia) and Norfolk Island. They carried convicts, marines, seamen, civil officers and free settlers, and took just over eight months to complete their journey, arriving at Port Jackson on 26 January 1788. Philip Gidley King had been selected by Captain Arthur Phillip, Commander of the First Fleet, as his second-in-command for the voyage, and upon landing in Port Jackson was nominated ‘as an officer of merit … whose perseverance may be depended upon’ to establish a subordinate settlement on Norfolk Island.

  • An Interrogation of the Angus & Robertson Archives
    The Commercial Function of Historical Book Reviews: An Interrogation of the Angus & Robertson Archives Rebekah Ward hroughout the eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the public was reliant on the newspaper and periodical press for entertain- T ment, news and information. Even before mass literacy, newspapers were being read aloud by the literate members of a community. By the mid- nineteenth century high literacy rates, reduced regulations, and the emergence of new print, communication and transportation technologies resulted in the mass circulation of print media and a commercialisation of the press (Raven; Steinberg). More newspapers and periodicals were being produced, and they were being read by larger and more diverse audiences than ever before. The press had become an indispensable part of daily life, described by S. H. Stein- berg as ‘an instrument of mass-information and mass-education’ (161) and by Alan Lee as ‘the most important single medium of the communication of ideas’ (18). In Australia, the first colonial newspaper, the Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser, was established in 1803 by convict and printer George Howe. The paper was authorised by Governor Philip Gidley King and was produced on a printing press that had arrived with the First Fleet, so was subject to sig- nificant government oversight (Blair 10). The Gazette contained official reports on the front page, shipping information, general news and other miscellaneous content. From the 1820s the Australian press rapidly diversified. As in other countries, the expansion of the metropolitan press and establishment of the country press was aided by communication and transportation advancements, namely railway networks and telegraph.

  • Manly, Warringah and Pittwater: First Fleet Records of Events, 1788-1790
    Manly, Warringah and Pittwater: First Fleet Records of Events, 1788-1790 No. 5: Survey of Middle Harbour: 21st to 24th April, 1788. Acknowledgement The authors gratefully acknowledge assistance given by the staff of the Mitchell Library, Sydney. Copyright: Shelagh and George Champion, 1990. ISBN 0 9596484 7 X. The discovery of Middle Harbour above the Spit, and in particular the report by Captain Hunter of a run of fresh water feeding into the upper part of it, apparently led to Governor Phillip’s expedition of 15th April, 1788, which began in the Manly area and proceeded overland until the run of fresh water was reached. Our article, ‘Finding the right track’ deals with the exploration, 15th to 18th April. Another consequence of the discovery was a survey of Middle Harbour, carried out by Captain Hunter, Lieutenant Bradley, and James Keltie, the master of the Sirius. Seaman Jacob Nagle was a member of Governor Phillip’s boat crew. When this crew was not needed, Phillip used to send them out fishing at night. Nagle claimed that on one such excursion they found Middle Harbour, above the Spit: “On one of these excurcions, one night shooting the seen [seine] at the head of Middle Harbour, as we supposed, and shifting a long a rising sandy beach towards the north side, we found a narrow entrance, and going over the bank of sand, we discovered an other branch runing to the westward, full of coves, though we ware as far as this beach when surveying with the Govenor but did not discover the entrance of this branch.
