The Logbooks of the Lady Nelson is a historical book written by Ida Lee. It is a detailed account of the voyages of the Lady Nelson, a ship that was instrumental in the exploration and mapping of the Australian coast in the late 18th century. The book is based on the original logbooks of the ship, which were kept by its captain and crew during their voyages. The book provides a fascinating insight into the challenges and adventures faced by the crew of the Lady Nelson as they navigated the treacherous waters of the Australian coast. It covers the ship’s voyages from its launch in 1799 to its final days in 1825, and includes detailed descriptions of the places visited, the people encountered, and the events that took place during each voyage. The Logbooks of the Lady Nelson is a valuable resource for historians, maritime enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the early exploration and mapping of Australia. It is a well-researched and engaging book that brings to life the experiences of the crew of the Lady Nelson and sheds light on the important role played by the ship in the history of Australia.''Tuesday, January 26th.
