Premise
According to ABC Weekly "The story traces Flinders’ career from the time he joined the Royal Navy, in 1789, against the will of his doctor father. The midshipman sailed with Captain Bligh... and later made maps along the Australian coast with George Bass. But even while Flinders’ work drew him to the ends of the earth his heart remained at home with a girl named Ann Chuppel. This great romance in his life is deftly woven into the story."
