註釋

"This volume, makes available transcriptions of the letters of John Septimus Roe written during his time serving with Phillip Parker King on the Mermaid and Bathurst voyages to survey parts of the Australian coast (1817-1823). Roe's dramatic letters represent a full and lengthy alternative account to the published version of King, the Narrative of a Survey of the Intertropical and Western Coasts of Australia (1826). Included are the full series of 16 major letters to his father the Reverend James Roe of Newbury (Berks.), as well as letters to Roe's brother William and sister Sophia, and some other correspondence." -- author's website.
