In 1829 a boat was shipwrecked off Cape York, northern Australia. One of the survivors was a young Scottish doctor, Thomas Braidwood Wilson. Dr Wilson made nine voyages as a naval surgeon on convict ships before settling down as a pioneer farmer in the southern highlands of NSW. This is a fictionalised account of his amazing life.
