To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The small isles, especially between the Montebello Group and Barrow's Island, have all thesame direction; so that it seems fair to conclude that they were once apart of the main, being in fact fragments of a promontory, forming a gulfsimilar to Exmouth Gulf, lying on the south-west of it. I had been led toexpect this from the fact of our finding the flood-stream coming from thenorth-east, whereas the direction of it in the offing isNorth-North-West. SUPPLY OF TURTLES. Barrow's Island, being abo...ut twelve miles broad and twenty long, would, in the event of a penal settlement being formed in this neighbourhood, make a good second Norfolk Island. On leaving we brought away with usseven tons of turtles from the abundant supplies its shores afforded. Many of them we gave to our friends at Swan River on our arrival. Wecannot quit this island without reminding our readers that it was namedafter the distinguished Secretary to the Admiralty, who has just retiredfrom office after a period of service of nearly half a century, duringwhich time he was the promoter of all geographical research, and mainlyinstrumental in founding a society which is of growing importance toGreat Britain, and who has established a lasting reputation both by histravels and his literary productions.
