David Howie - Devil or Saint? A biography
 
(0 reviews)  

A biography of David Howie, a man who became a household name in Australia in 1845 as a result of his involvement in the rescue of survivors of the shipwreck of the Cataraqui on King Island - Australia's worst sea tragedy on record.

Researched over many years in England, Scotland and Australia this book tells the story of a man who became a legend in his country of forced adoption.
This is the story of his life; his family and the era in which he grew to manhood; his court trials and subsequent banishment from his homeland; his experiences half way across the world in an unknown and feared convict colony.
