First edition of explorer and hydrographer John Lort Stokes' account of this important series of surveying voyages in the Beagle,a cornerstone work of Australian maritime exploration. Having joined the Beagleas a midshipman in 1824, Stokes worked his way up to become an assistant surveyor on the ship's famous circumnavigation with Charles Darwin in 1832-36. The Beagle was then sent under CommanderJohn Wickhamto survey Australian waters, arriving in December 1837. In 1839, during a survey of the Timor Sea, Stokes was frequently entrusted with the closer examination of the coastline of northern Australia. He became the first European to observe and name the Victoria River and Port Darwin. He was speared by Aborigines at Point Pearce in December 1839, but managed to recover from his wounds. In March 1841 he succeeded Wickham in command of theBeagle, and later in that year surveyed part of the Gulf of Carpentaria, whenever possible making excursions inland. He named the Flinders and Albert Rivers, and the Plains of Promise. In December 1841, while theBeaglewas off the coast of Western Australia, Stokes also carried out a survey of the area around Port Grey, a site which had been proposed for the Australind settlement.
