Description

Professor Ernest Scott's biography of the illustrious navigator Matthew Flinders was first published in 1914 to mark and honour the centenary of Matthew Flinder's death. This second edition is timed to coincide with the bicenentary of the commencement of his voyage on the Investigator, which resulted in the first recorded circumnavigation of the Australian continent.
