A detailed record of white shark interactions in Tasmanian waters from the establishment of the British colony in Van Diemen's Land through to the early 21st century — covering captures, sightings, encounters and attacks documented over nearly two centuries.
Between 1841 and 1853, nearly 250 women were transported from Ireland to Van Diemen's Land for committing arson, a number out of all proportion to males transported for the same offence. Renowned Tasmanian historian Dianne Snowden explains why so many women resorted to arson as a desperate survival mechanism during the Great Famine, explores their motives, and follows their lived experiences both as convicts in the factory system and subsequently when set free in the colony.
An illustrated story book for kids and dog lovers.
