John McDouall Stuart
Description
This is a sketch of John McDouall Stuart (7 September 1815 – 5 June 1866) he was a Scottish explorer and one of the most accomplished of all Australia's inland explorers. The explorations of Stuart eventually resulted in the 1863 annexation of a huge area of country to the Government of South Australia. This area became known as the Northern Territory. In 1911 the Commonwealth of Australia assumed responsibility for that area. In 1871-72 the Australian Overland Telegraph Line was constructed along Stuart's route. The principal road from Port Augusta to Darwin was also established essentially on his route and is now known as the Stuart Highway in his honour.
