This 1914 publication was the first comprehensive biography of Matthew Flinders (1774–1814), the first explorer to circumnavigate Australia. The leading Australian historian Ernest Scott (1868–1939) drew both on material in private collections in France and on documents in Australian libraries to compile this vivid account of Flinders' eventful life.
