Edward John Eyre was probably one of the most misrepresented men in 19th-century colonialism. His career was a paradox. Celebrated to this day in Australia as one of the great explorers, he was later reviled by the leading British liberal intellectuals as a monster of cruelty and oppression. (book flap)
