Everyone knows that Captain Cook 'discovered' the great continent of Australia in It says so in the history books, and his many monuments in Australia acknowledge it.
True, the Dutch had sighted the West Coast in But it was Cook who found the harbours of the East, and made settlement possible. Mclntyre, an Australian lawyer with a lifelong interest in the history of discovery, has uncovered a different story. By studying ancient maps particularly those known as the Dauphin and 'Dieppe' maps and researching the history of Portuguese navigation from the time of Henry the Navigator, he shows that not only was Captain James Cook not the first European to visit Australia, he was preceded by more than years. For is it not reasonable that the Portuguese who discovered Timor in the midth century should have found the vast continent a mere miles away, as well?
How else to explain the mysterious records of the finding of a wrecked 'Mahogany Ship' on the Southern Victorian Coast? Mclntyre's story of these early voyages, his detailed understanding of the development of deep-sea navigation and of the policies that drove the Maritime Powers of Spain and Portugal to compete to rule the world on either side of the Pope's meridian, make his book compelling reading in itself. But The Secret Discovery of Australia is also a fascinating suspense story, the tale of the author's own unravelling of a great historical mystery, the unearthing of secrets that have been kept for hundreds of years.
He engrosses his reader, as he sets right a great injustice for the records.
