"Two Expeditions into the Interior of Southern Australia — Volume 2" by Charles Sturt is a historical account written during the early 19th century. The narrative captures the second of two exploratory expeditions undertaken by Sturt in the uncharted interior regions of Australia, focusing on the Morumbidgee and Murray Rivers. The book is characterized by Sturt's detailed observations of the landscapes, weather, native populations, and geology of the areas he traverses, aiming to document the natural resources and conditions of the colony of New South Wales. The opening of the volume sets the stage for the expedition that began in November 1829, detailing preparations, participants, and initial observations upon departure from Sydney. Sturt introduces his party, including Mr. George M'Leay, and describes their encounters with natives, geographical features, and early trials they face as they journey through diverse landscapes, including plains and valleys. The narrative conveys a sense of adventure and anticipation mixed with challenges, such as navigating difficult terrain and managing supplies. Sturt's reflective writing also hints at his growing concerns over the expedition's success as they delve deeper into the largely unexplored interior of Australia, while illustrating the profound connection between the explorer and the land he seeks to understand.
