Originally published in 1811, Island of Java was the first popular work in English to describe what for many centuries was the most important island in the vast Indonesian archipelago. It preceded by several years the publication of Major William Thorns The Conquest of Java (1815) and Thomas Stamford Raffles The History of Java (1817). The book enjoyed a great popularity and quickly passed into a second edition.

Admitted to the Stationer's Company in London in 1802, he began publishing books on military history. This book was compiled in record-breaking time when news reached London of the projected British invasion of Java.
