It is 1857, and Reverend Geoffrey Wilson has departed England to prove the literal truth of the Bible. The expedition heads towards Tasmania, where he is convinced he will find the real Garden of Eden. But the other passengers have their own agendas. Dr Potter is developing a sinister thesis, and the ship is crewed by smugglers of contraband brandy and tobacco. As the English passengers near Peevay's land, their bizarre notions become painfully at odds with reality.

One of the best audible books

A wonderful story about the sad discovery by Europeans of Tasmania. The different narrators have distinctive voices and fascinating accents that make the story come to life. I learned a lot from this book, was vastly entertained while at the same time being shocked by humanity’s narrow mindedness and cruelty. I would give it more stars if I could
