Download or read book Governor Macquarie written by Derek Parker and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2011-04-05 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first new biography of Lachlan Macquarie in decades, this book draws on a wealth of sources, both in Australia and overseas, to paint a picture of the man and his times. It must be seen as one of the great ironies of Australian history that as far as the British Government was concerned he failed in his duty as Governor of New South Wales - as was clearly documented to official minds in the official report compiled by Commissioner John Bigge. This report concluded that while Governor Macquarie had certainly supervised the building in New South Wales of some good roads and some handsome buildings (if at far too high a cost to the British taxpayers), under his government the colony had ceased to be what it was required to be: a place with a reputation for cruelty and hopelessness so terrifying that the very threat of being banished there would strike terror into the heart of any prospective malefactor. Macquarie had in fact had a vision shared by few others that New Holland had the potential to become `one of the greatest and most flourishing colonies belonging to the British Empire' - and became determined to do his part in steering the fledgling community in that direction.
Download or read book Macquarie written by Harry Dillion and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2010 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macquarie charts the eventful rule of Lachlan Macquarie, governor of New South Wales from 1810 to late 1821. These were crucial years during which the fate of the colony was in the balance after years of struggle, famine, and strife culminating in a military coup against Governor William Bligh. Under Macquarie's leadership, civil rule and good order were firmly established in the colony, the population grew steadily, the settlement of Australia's vast interior began, and the foundations for the great wool industry were laid. Macquarie carried out an ambitious program of public works that resulted in better roads and other infrastructure, a string of new townships around Sydney, and an array of fine buildings, a number of which still stand today as the most important visual symbols of Australia's colonial heritage. This book is a timely reminder of Macquarie's importance to modern Australians. Macquarie tells this story as narrative history, a fascinating tale of the genesis of a nation and of an extraordinary individual who refused to be confounded by the odds stacked against him. The emphasis is on telling a story about people, their motives, goals, foibles, successes, and disappointments. It is, after all, a great story that is well worth the telling.
