Cargo for the Colony - the 1797 wreck of the merchant ship Sydney Cove

		(0 reviews)

Wrecked in 1797 while on a journey from Calcutta to Port Jackson, the Sydney Cove was the first merchant vessel lost after the establishment of the colony of New South Wales.

Since its rediscovery in Tasmanian waters by divers in 1977, the Sydney Cove site has since been the subject of an extensive research project. In this comprehensive account, which includes maps, photographs and rare pictures, maritime archaeologist Michael Nash documents the history and archaeology of one of Australia's most significant shipwrecks.

Hardcover with dustjacket, published 2001, 199-pages
Illustrations: mostly black & white, some colour. Indexed
