On the Fringe of the Harbor

On the Fringe of the Harbor is an admiring look at Botany Bay in New South Wales. John Arthur Berry writes a love letter to the industry of sailing and the piers of Australia. Excerpt: "I don't know whether Captain Arthur Phillip ever had the Sirius brought up as far as Farm Cove. It is quite probable that he did, and that the old warship of one hundred and ten years ago and her consorts of the First Fleet swung to their anchors on the very same spot where now crouch the steel dragons of a later day."
