Buchbeschreibung 1st ed. Hardback small quarto, no jacket (as issued), very good plus condition, pictorial cover, few colour reproductions (includes frontispiece portrait), maps at rear. 189 pp. Arthur Hoyle provides the first biography of Admiral John Hunter who was the second Governor of New South Wales, and who came with the First Fleet in 1788 as second Captain of HMS Sirius. He was the Governor for five years. He battled shortages of food, almost mutinous NSW Corps and a population of convicts. The minister in distant London failed to understand his difficulties. He was later recalled to London in semi-disgrace, but was vindicated a year later when his successors failed also, and his recommendations were finally acted upon. He had an interesting life in the Royal Navy over a period of 68 years, where he rose from the position of Captain's Servant to the rank of Vice-Admiral of the Red. (Loosely inserted: Invitation, on Mulini Press letterhead, to book launch by Bishop Tom Frame.). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 29724
