A Partial Account of Watkin Tench’s Journeys to the Hawkesbury-Nepean
In this episode Jed surprises Alistair with a dramatic reading of several passages from Watkin Tench’s 1793 publication ’A Complete Account of the Settlement at Port Jackson’. The stories we explore relate to some of the first journeys the colonisers made to Dyarubbin, the one river that they had mistakenly identified as both the Hawkesbury and the Nepean.
