A Voyage to Botany Bay was first published in London in 1795. The sequel, A Sequel to Barrington's Voyage to New South Wales was published in 1801. George Barrington (1755-1804) was the famous gentleman thief transported to Australia in the early years of settlement. He arrived in Sydney in 1791 and was generally considered a reformed character in a new land, winning government positions and land. His name was used to sell these early accounts of the colony. Neither of these works was actually written by Barrington and they are most likely compilations of journalists from official reports and earlier published writings.

George Waldron (1755-1804) aka George Barrington, was an Irish pickpocket and later a policeman. In 1771 he robbed his school-master at Dublin and ran away, becoming a member of a touring theatrical company under the assumed name of Barrington. At the Limerick races he joined the manager of the company in pocketpicking. At Covent Garden theatre he robbed a Russian Count of a snuff-box, said to be worth 30,000. He was detected and arrested, but as Count Orlov declined to prosecute, was discharged, though subsequently he was sentenced to three years hard labour for pocketpicking at Drury Lane theatre. On his release he was again caught at his old practices and sentenced to five years hard labour, but influence secured his release on the condition that he left England. He accordingly went for a short time to Dublin, and then returned to London, where he was once more detected pocket-picking, and, in 1790, sentenced to seven years transportation. His works include: A Voyage to Botany Bay (written as George Barrington) (1795), The History of New South Wales (1802), The History of New Holland (1808) and A Sequel to a Voyage to Botany Bay (1801).
