Set of 7 convict handy guides at 50% discount.
Most Australians are pleased to find a convict in the family these days. One who gained a 'free' voyage to Australia. Maybe they were an early European settler, or a bit of a rebel, but making the best of their adversities.
Governments recorded a convict's trial and sentence, imprisonment, transportation, assignments and punishments until the offender left the convict system by death or freedom - so there is generally more information available about convicts than free settlers of the same period.
This set of 7 convict handy guides gives you an overview of convicts to Australia from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales as well the various Australian colonies: New South Wales, Moreton Bay (Queensland), Norfolk Island, Port Phillip in Victoria, Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania), Western Australia and Norfolk Island. They include plenty of links for you to look further, as well as lists of books for further reading.
