James Francis Hogan (1855–1924) wrote several histories of Irish colonisation in Australia. This 1891 publication presents the colourful autobiography of Jorgen Jorgenson (1780–1841), a Danish adventurer , briefly 'King of Iceland', who insinuated himself into influential social networks in Britain but was eventually transported to Tasmania as a convict.
