AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The writer for the Sydney Herald contends that publishing activity in the colony of New South Wales has received favourable treatment in the English press and that this proves an interest in the affairs of the colony by 'a large portion of the reading public in the Mother Country'. Ongoing publishing, the writer argues, will 'keep alive the favorable impression made by former writers'.

'The Sydney Herald' 1833 single work column
— Appears in: The Sydney Monitor , 17 August vol. 8 no. 593 1833; (p. 4) The Sydney Monitor's correspondent decries the claims of the Sydney Herald in relation to colonial literary publications. The Monitor's correspondent says: 'It is quite ridiculous to tell the people here, that "works of magnitude" are published in England regarding New South Wales; and that "a large portion of the reading public" are interested in these works'.

The correspondent continues: 'With the exception of a few London merchants, or people who have relations or correspondents here, the Colony is little known or thought of in England, except as Botany Bay ; a name which sticks to it like a burr, and will stick to it for many a long year.'

In the correspondent's opinion, Cunningham's Two Years in New South Wales is 'the only readable work which has been published in this Colony'.
