"In 1849, the Enderby Settlement, so called after its visionary founder Charles Enderby, was lauded by British politicians as a 'well judged project'. With Enderby appointed Lieutenant Governor, as the Crown's representative, and Chief Commissioner of the Southern Whale Fishery Company, the lessee of the islands, the proposed colony carried the nation's hopes of reviving its global whaling industry.
