About this product

Product Information

Australia is the only modern society to have begun as a dedicated penal settlement. It was an experiment that should have ended like others of its kind in a stew of murder, rebellion and starvation. In this compelling, vivid and moving recreation of the first four years of 'the Sydney experiment', Tom Keneally examines how a motley 'thief colony' exiled by England as incapable of civilised development, not only survived, but flourished into a sophisticated modern society. History at its surprising and gripping best.

    Sent quickly and well packaged, however the book was described as “like new” but it was stained, worn and chewed upon on one corner by cockroaches. It definitely was not in “like new” condition. I messaged the seller, but there was no communication.

    This book arrived in just two days (ordered on Saturday and delivered by Australia Post on the following Tuesday morning. It is in very good, near-new condition (as described) and the seller was very communicative. I would happily buy from this business again and recommend them.
