| Summary, etc. | "Narrative of a Survey of the Intertropical and Western Coasts of Australia" by Captain Phillip P. King is a historical account written during the early 19th century. The work chronicles King's extensive survey of the largely uncharted and unexplored coasts of Australia between the years 1818 and 1822, detailing the geography, flora, fauna, and interactions with indigenous peoples. The narrative provides insights into the early colonial endeavors and maritime exploration of Australia, aiming to augment existing knowledge for navigational and hydrographic purposes. At the start of the text, King reflects on the importance of his mission and outlines the preparations for the voyage, including the choice of the vessel, the Mermaid, and the crew assembled for the journey. He details the intended route and initial geographical features encountered, including their departure from Port Jackson and a stop at Twofold Bay, where they made contact with indigenous Australians. This opening portion sets the tone for a meticulous scientific expedition, filled with challenges of navigation and the interplay between exploration and indigenous cultures, thereby providing a glimpse into the life and struggles of early 19th-century maritime survey work in Australia.
