Written by popular and highly readable Australian historian Patsy Adam-Smith, this compelling volume tracks the lives, adventures, and fortunes of the seven prominent Irish patriots banished to the Van Diemen's Land penal colony following the 1848 Young Ireland rebellion. Rather than a dry academic history, Adam-Smith brings these figures to life, chronicling their loneliness, political convictions, escapes, and loves across three continents. It is a deeply accessible and moving narrative that appeals to general readers, Irish history enthusiasts, and family history researchers alike.
