Garden Island, an inner-city locality of Sydney since joined to the mainland, and used for government and naval purposes since the first days of British settlement.

This engraving does not relate to any other known views but uit and the other views of the book 'are of interest because they illustrate how the already complex process of converting an original field drawing to a published book illustration can be still further extended by an illicit traffic in images'.

Early view of Sydney, from 'The History of New South Wales [...]' supposedly by the famous pickpocket George Barrington (first published 1802), although there is no evidence of his involvement with the book, and London publishers used his name without scruples.

The source has been augmented with the addition of an Aboriginal Australian aiming a spear at a British settler, drawing parallels with violence against settlers often depicted in prints such as those documenting Cook's voyages.

The Manhattan Terminal for ferry service between Brooklyn and Manhattan was located between the current Piers 17 and 18 at the South Street Seaport. In 1814 Robert Fulton’s steam-propelled ferry on the new Fulton Ferry line to New York was introduced. The 'Road to the Ferry' was renamed Fulton Street in honor of the inventor. Fulton Market - across the street from Schermerhorn Row - first opened in 1822. The current Fulton Market building is the fourth to both share the location and name. The historic Fulton Fish Market dates back to 1835.
