The Adventurous Bushman Batman Founding Melbourne
John Batman selected the Port Phillip Bay site that became Melbourne, securing a place in history as founder of a great city. A bushman of romance and tragedy, he left a life filled with adventure. Born Parramatta, he moved to Tasmania at 21, crossed wars and bushrangers, befriended Hamilton Hume, and later vanished into myth after a brief, controversial life ending at age 30.
