Filling In The Map

When the First Fleet arrived in Australia in 1788, Governor Arthur Phillip selected a sheltered cove as the site of Australias first colony.

Australia is a big place. It covers 7.7 million square kilometres. Filling in the Map is a history of the explorers who charted the coastlines, scaled the mountains and crossed the deserts in search of farmland and freshwater and filled the map of Australia.
