Alexander Sutherland's 'History of Australia and New Zealand from 1606 to 1890' stands as a meticulously crafted historical narrative, eloquently charting the emergence of these two nations from their early discoveries to the cusp of the modern era. The prose is both scholarly and accessible, weaving the exploits of numerous navigators with the complex tapestry of European colonial settlements. Sutherland's account is informed by an impressive breadth of research, providing readers with a granular yet panoramic view of the shaping of the Australasian region within its broader geopolitical and cultural contexts. This work is markedly distinct from mere historical recount; it offers deep analyses and insights that transcend into the philosophical, grounding its historical tales in a meditation on nationhood and identity.

This foundation likely aided him in avoiding the potential pitfalls of dry recounting, ensuring instead a vibrant and engaging chronicle.
The 'History of Australia and New Zealand from 1606 to 1890' is highly recommended for both the academic and casual reader seeking a comprehensive understanding of Australasia's formative years. The book, free from the embellishments of mythology making, allows for a genuine engagement with the past. It is an invaluable resource for students of history, particularly those interested in colonial and post-colonial studies, as well as for anyone wishing to gain insight into the complex layers that underpin the contemporary social and political landscapes of Australia and New Zealand.

Autoren-Porträt von Alexander Sutherland, George Sutherland
Alexander Sutherland (1852-1902) was a notable Australian writer and educator, distinguished for his contributions to the literary and intellectual history of Australia. His work, 'History of Australia and New Zealand from 1606 to 1890', co-authored with his brother, George Sutherland, remains an important text for students of Australasian history. Born in Scotland and emigrating to Australia with his family in 1864, Sutherland's early experiences deeply influenced his later writing. He developed a keen understanding of colonial life, which he skilfully depicted in his work. As an educator, he served as a headmaster at several schools, including the prestigious Melbourne High School. His pedagogical methods were advanced for his time, emphasizing the development of moral character alongside intellectual pursuits. Sutherland's literary style is characterized by meticulous research, clear narration, and an engaging prose that brings history to life. His contributions extend beyond his historical texts and into the realm of philosophy and ethics, including his work 'The Origin and Growth of the Moral Instinct'. This scholarly approach cements his legacy as a key figure in the educational and literary history of his adopted country. While not as widely known today, Sutherland's work provided a foundation for future Australian historians and continues to be referenced by scholars exploring the colonial era of Australasia.
