Description:
This concise and accessible volume explores the transportation of convicts to Australia and the broader international context of penal labour. Convicts: Transportation & Australia delves into life in the colonies through themes such as convict labour and skills, daily life and diet, the role of the British military, the Female Factory system, and the social and political movements that brought the era of transportation to an end. Richly illustrated and carefully researched, it’s an excellent introduction to one of the defining chapters of early Australian history.

Includes bibliographic references.

Why You’ll Love It:
A highly readable and informative guide to convict history, this book is ideal for students, educators, and history enthusiasts alike. It also makes a useful companion to historical site visits and museum exhibitions across New South Wales and beyond.
