The Annals of Tristan da Cunha
- A fascinating record of the history of Tristan from 1506 to 1926, written by Professor Arnaldo Faustini. It contains details of all ships calling at the island, detailed censuses and all major historical events. Downloadable in Adobe .PDF format
Augustus Earle Exhibition : Tristan da Cunha
- Earle was stranded there in March 1824 when his ship, the Duke of Gloucester, inexplicably set sail without him. (Many of his South American watercolours presumably disappeared at that time as well.) It was fortunate that Earle had taken painting equipment ashore and was able to occupy himself recording his impressions of the island until his supplies ran out. He subsequently described the eight-month ordeal in a letter to a Hobart newspaper and published a lengthier account after his arrival back in England.
A detailed history of Tristan da Cunha
- A detailed history of Tristan da Cunha, discovered in 1506, garissoned in 1816 and currently the most remote inhabited island in the world. The site covers the garissoning of the island in some detail, along with the "West Riding" disaster and visit of the first HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. The difficulties of living in such a remote location are graphically described.
