Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ... entrance that of Point Nepean." King named it Port Phillip. It was Flinders who gave names to Indented Head and Station Peak. Though approving of the soil for agriculture, and the country for sheep, he had his doubts about the region after walking for twenty miles without finding water. He alludes, however, to the survey of the port by Mr. Grimes, saying, " No runs of fresh water were seen in my excursions; but Mr. Charles Grimes, Surveyor-General of New South Wales, afterwards found several, and in particular a small river (the Yarra) falling into the northern head of the port. Mr. Grimes was sent by Governor King, in 1803, to walk round and survey the harbour; and from his plan I have completed my chart of Port Phillip." On that chart we see the Yarra distinctly marked. Mr. Surveyor Grimes Round The Bay, 1803. The journal of this exploration round Port Phillip Bay was not kept by the surveyor, Mr. Grimes, but by Mr. James Fleming, whose special duty was to note the agricultural qualities of the country. The journal appeared with two other early records at the expense of the Victorian Government in 1879, under the editorship of Mr. Shillinglaw, F.R.G.S., whose notes of places are appended. The Cumberland left Sydney with the party on November 23rd, 1802, and cruised about the islands of Bass's Strait, in search of a place for a new colony, by orders of Governor King. The result of such examination of King's Island is thus noted: "The best place for a settlement is either in Elephant Bay, or opposite New Year's Island; but as we saw little of the interior there are perhaps better places. The shore is in every place difficult of access for vessels." But we extract from the journal only that portion relating to the visit of Port Phillip...

Scars in the Landscape is a register of massacres and killings of Aboriginal people during 1803OCo1859. Deliberately challenging the ideology that the colonisation of Western Victoria was peaceful, the register reveal that violence was widespread. Through searching contemporary archival material, utilising Aboriginal oral history and local histories, and by studying place names in the region, Ian Clark presents a detailed, meticulously research study of massacres on one Australian region."

The Lives of Stories traces three stories of Aboriginal–settler friendships that intersect with the ways in which Australians remember founding national stories, build narratives for cultural revival, and work on reconciliation and self-determination. These three stories, which are still being told with creativity and commitment by storytellers today, are the story of James Morrill’s adoption by Birri-Gubba people and re-adoption 17 years later into the new colony of Queensland, the story of Bennelong and his relationship with Governor Phillip and the Sydney colonists, and the story of friendship between Wiradjuri leader Windradyne and the Suttor family. Each is an intimate story about people involved in relationships of goodwill, care, adoptive kinship and mutual learning across cultures, and the strains of maintaining or relinquishing these bonds as they took part in the larger events that signified the colonisation of Aboriginal lands by the British. Each is a story in which cross-cultural understanding and misunderstanding are deeply embedded, and in which the act of storytelling itself has always been an engagement in cross-cultural relations. The Lives of Stories reflects on the nature of story as part of our cultural inheritance, and seeks to engage the reader in becoming more conscious of our own effect as history-makers as we retell old stories with new meanings in the present, and pass them on to new generations.
