Ten Rogues - the unlikely story of convict schemers, a stolen brig and an escape from Van Diemen's Land
 
(0 reviews)  

A band of convicts, a scoundrel by the name of Jimmy Porter, a stolen brig and a daring plan for escape.

The story of a small band of convicts who managed to escape the living hell of the Tasmanian penal colony of Sarah Island. Their getaway began by stealing the leaky and untested brig they had helped to build, and then sailing it across the Pacific Ocean to Chile with neither a map nor a chronometer.
