Summary:Edward John Eyre was probably one of the most misrepresented men in the history of 19th century colonialism. His career was a paradox. Celebrated to this day in Australia as one of the great explorers, he was later in his life reviled by the leading British liberal intellectuals as a monster of cruelty and oppression.
