James Maclehose published The Picture of Sydney and Stranger's Guide in New South Wales for 1838 and The Picture of Sydney and Stranger's Guide in New South Wales for 1839. The latter was a reprint with, according to the Powerhouse Museum catalogue record for the work, 'almost no revision'. The Powerhouse Museum notes that the Sydney engraver, James Carmichael, produced 42 engravings of scenes and buildings in Sydney and surrounds for the work.
A review of The Picture of Sydney (1838) published in the Australian Magazine, January 1838, quotes extensively from an article describing the Australian aboriginal people.
Advertisements for the 1838 work were published in Sydney newspapers in January 1838 and for the 1839 edition in December 1838.
