Join us as we learn about a struggling outpost on the brink of starvation, and the extreme lengths they would go to fetch some flour.This episode is full of quotations from First Fleet diaries, which were found in the excellent Buried Alive: Eyewitness Accounts of the Making of a Nation by Jack Egan
