Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Dust jacket has some light creasing at edges and spine. Interior and binding are also very good.

From the peculiar lottery of justice and the squalor of the convict hulks in England to the extreme privation of the long journey out on transport ships and the charting of their fates in Australia, Christopher Sweeney gives a vivid and often horrifying account of convict life.
