1 y separately published work icon The Raking of the Embers June Whittaker , London Sydney : Angus and Robertson , 1981 Z229861 1981 single work novel historical fiction 'Early in the spring of 1783, a young man stood in the dock of the small, crowded courtroom of Thetford in Norfolk. His offence was burglary, and his sentence - to be hanged by the neck until he was dead - was swift and merciless. The young man was Henry Cabell, and The Raking of the Embers, vividly written and meticulously researched by June Whittaker, a descendant of Cabell, is both his story and the story of the first settlement at Sydney Cove.'
