On a soft October evening in 1802, on the
lawn before Government House, eighteen-
year-old Susannah King stands watching a
French corvette under topsails as it moves
slowly into that noblest of harbors, Sydney
Cove. In this enchanted and forever-
remembered hour, the governor s daughter
awaits the returning Post-Captain Nicholas
Baudin. He is her first lover and she is to be
his last, but the echoes of their encounter
will ring with deepening tones through the
lives of many others, and through the first
turbulent decades of the Australian nation-
to-be.
