Jackson's place in the history of Australian ornithology is assured-his important egg collection was absorbed by the larger HL White collection, his pioneering collecting trips and subsequent accounts in the literature of the day, particularly articles for the premier ornithological journal The Emu. His skill as a photographer is not as well known. Brings together Jackson's photographs and his life-as well as the wider story of the role of naturalist in shaping scientific thought in Australia.
