An account of the first convict settlement on Maria Island, off Tasmania's east coast, drawing on the original Register of Convicts held by the Oxfordshire County Records Office in Oxford, England — including tabulated information on all 347 convicts held at the settlement (1 female and 346 male), transcribed from the original register. Covers the island's discovery, first settlement, and the "extreme penalty," alongside a full convict register index and appendices.
