The State Library of New South Wales holds, amongst other historical records, the original log book that records this epic voyage. This valuable document has been digitised and is publically available our website.

Richard Neville, the Mitchell Librarian, and Barry Nunn have passed on the following links. Check them out. Truly amazing! It will make it easier for you to draw parallels between the historical event and the Talisker Bounty Boat Adventure.
