The Exiles by William Joy

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Price sticker remnant on front cover. No dust jacket.

The Exiles tells the turbulent history of how men from the other side of the world claimed the unknown continent, Terra Australia, and turned it into the British Colony.

Between 1792 and 1822 five governors returned to Britain, defeated by the larrikinism and greed of the military, the treachery and insubordination of their officials and the unruliness of the settlers.
