Bemerkung:

Text franz. Rowcroft (1798-1856) was educated at Eton, after which he went to Hobart Town, Australia, in 1821 and took up a grant of 2,000 acres (8 km ). He returned to England in 1826. In 1843 he published Tales of the Colonies, followed by The Bushranger of Van Diemen's Land (heutiges Tasmanien), (1846). Another of his novels, An Emigrant in Search of a Colony (1851), is also connected with Australia.
