Giovanna Scocchera et. al. )agent with title L'Altra Parte del Mondo ) Milan : Rizzoli , 2001 Z519968 2000 single work novel historical fiction It was one of the greatest human experiments ever undertaken: to populate an unknown land with the criminal, the unloved and the unwanted of English society. Amid conditions of brutality, 'The First Fleet' was sent to a place that no European but the legendary Captain Cook had ever seen. Left to live or die on the hostile Australian continent, these convicts - and their equally isolated guards - occupy the centre of this story. And Richard Morgan - convicted felon - makes an indelible mark upon the new frontier. A historical saga, rich in romance and drama. (Source: Trove)
