| Abstract: | Michael Duffy’s "John Macarthur: Man of Honour" is more than a biography of
John Macarthur, second-fleeter and pioneer pastoralist in New South Wales. It is
a history of the beginnings of a society, so precarious at times that one is almost
surprised that it could survive.
The climax of his book is the rebellion in 1808 which deposed
Governor Bligh – commonly known as the Rum Rebellion. |
