A Voyage Round the World, in the Gorgon Man of War (1795) records Mary Ann Parker's voyage with her husband, Captain John Parker, to New South Wales. Written following the death of her husband, the memoir offers valuable insight into women's participation in eighteenth-century colonialism, both socially and economically.
