Book Description
Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.
Robert Macklin tells the vivid, bewitching story of how a unique lifestyle and culture evolved amongst almost two thousand inhabitants.
From a brutal penal colony, a refuge for descendants of the Bounty mutineers when they outgrew Pitcairn Island in 1856, to the murder of Janelle Patton in 2002, Norfolk Island is exposed like never before. A place full of shadows and wrongful deaths, its history is a mesmerising tale all the more powerful because it is true. (Backcover)
