		Strzelecki's subsequent claim to discovery of Gippsland was rejected by squatter Angus McMillan and his supporters, giving rise to heated debate in the Sydney and Melbourne newspapers and to a controversy which continues to this day.
		Strzelecki later wrote to his life-long love Adyna Turno informing her that she would be the one to prepare it for publication.

		Indeed, Paul Edmund Strzelecki was a Polish nobleman.
		They argued that Strzelecki's discovery in 1840 was kept secret at the request of Governor Gipps, who feared that the news of a gold discovery would be likely to bring about anarchy.
		Surely, it is. Strzelecki was one of the most brilliant men of the 19th century, a precursor of modern ideas, who should be remembered by both champions of environmental protection, and the advocates of progress of civilisation.

		The errors, inconsistencies, and exaggerations relating to date, time, Kosciuszko’s tumulus, mountain height, perpetual snow, and so forth, all point to a picture of a romantic who had scaled the highest mountain mass in the land and is intoxicated by the feelings engendered.
		The Polish explorer and natural scientist, Strzelecki, mistakenly vowed that the flocks and axes and tinder boxes by destroying the forests and under growth, were actually making the climate hotter and dryer.
