Henry Camfield

Standing on the land he called he called ' Burswood ' , the English settler who almost starved to death in his attempt to turn this alien land into an English garden, leans on his shovel in helpless despair.

His weary demeanor captures the sense of hopelessness that enveloped those early 19th Century migrants, who clung to the sandy edges of the alien Continent.

The story of many is told in his face.
