Chapter 10, Australia and the South Seas
https://librivox.org/uploads/philchenevert/geographicaldiscovery_10_jacobs_128kb.mp3 (22:35)

I had to read the last line of the chapter three times before I could do it without chuckling: "These explorations, while adding to our knowledge of the interior of Australia, have only confirmed the impression that it was not worth knowing."

Ouch!
