The History of Tasmania: Two Volumes Annotated by John West.The first reported sighting of Tasmania by a European was on 24 November 1642 by the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman, who named the island Anthoonij van Diemenslandt, after his sponsor, the Governor of the Dutch East Indies. The name was later shortened to Van Diemen's Land by the British. In 1772, a French expedition led by Marc-Joseph Marion du Fresne landed on the island. Captain James Cook also sighted the island in 1777, and numerous other European seafarers made landfalls, adding a colourful array to the names of topographical features.The author takes this opportunity to thank the gentlemen who have allowed him, for several years, the use of their works on the colonies, and valuable original papers; especially the trustees of Lady Franklin's Museum, Messrs. R. Lewis, Hone, Gunn, Joseph Archer, Henty, P. Roberts, Wooley, and Pitcairn.This work includes a section on Tasmanian Zoology; and a useful list of the chief places in this country.
John West was born in Liverpool, UK and emigrated to Australia as a school teacher in 1971. He left teaching to become a minister in the Anglican Church and served in Sydney, Newcastle and Grafton dioceses over twenty-five years before semi-retiring in 2016, from rector of the Parish Port Macquarie and his position as a Grafton Diocese missional archdeacon. John gained teaching certificates from the UK and NSW, a B.Th and an MA in Theology, which led to some part-time lecturing. He has three married children and four grandchildren through his marriage to his late wife, Susan. He has since re-married to Lisa in 2020. They live on the NSW Central Coast, while doing part-time locum work in the Newcastle Diocese.
