The Duyfken and its master Willem Janszoon by Joan I Smith
11.1 The Duyfken
in Australia: AUD$ 20.00 incl postage.
in Australia: AUD$ 20.00 incl postage.
When in 1606 a small Dutch ship named Duyfken made a landing on Cape York Peninsula it turned out to be the first recorded visit by Europeans to the Southland (Australia) - 164 years before the arrival of Captain Cook.
Very little was known of the ship's Master - Willem Janszoon. Yet his life and career were quite remarkable for although he started life as a foundling he became a valued member of the United (Dutch) EastIndies Company (VOC).
Beneath the exterior of an ordinary man he was a clever navigator and strategist which ultimately led him to become an Admiral and Governor of Banda. The story, which is a reconstruction made up of both fiction and historical facts, has a page turning quality.
A heartwarming history for young and old alike.
