The heartbreaking stories of the early Australian colony's forgotten children, and those who succeeded against all odds as convict orphans in the Queen's Orphan Schools in Hobart, Van Diemen's Land.
These are stories of abuse and abandonment, but also of great generosity and kindness from individuals who rescued and supported children in the early days of European settlement in Van Diemen's Land and the early Australian colonies.
