‘They have bayonets,’ whispered Ralph. ‘This is no parade drill.’ We drew back more tightly into the shadow. A soldier beat his fist on the door. David Bellamy fears the strange new land of New South Wales, its inhabitants and its wild creatures. He fears the Governor himself: the swearing, cursing Governor Bligh. Then on the anniversary of British settlement in Sydney, 26th January, 1808, David and his new friends, Kitty and Ralph, witness the military march on Government House from the streets of Sydney Town.
