About This Item
New York: Simon & Schuster, 2000. At the center of this novel is Richard Morgan, son of a Bristol tavern-keeper consigned as a convict to the famous 'first fleet' which set sail , bearing, as an experiment in penology, 582 male and 193 female felons sentenced to transportation, in May 1787 for the continent that Captain Cook had discovered only a few years earlier, New South Wales. Through Morgan's eyes we see the two-worlds in which the story takes place; that of 18-century Bristol where Morgan was born and expected to live out his life, and that of a convicted felon sent to settle a hostile new world. Map endpapers show the route of the 'First Fleet' from England to New South Wales. A bright, clean book in a price-intact dust jacket.. ISBN: 0-684-85329-9. First Edition, First Printing. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 18 Century England + New South Wales + Norfork Island + British Penal System + Australia + Bristol. Catalogs: Modern Firsts.
