Robson’s pioneering study of the origins and crimes of the convicts sent to Australia during the age of transportation ‘introduces a valuable core of hard facts into a discussion hitherto dominated by impressionism’ . ‘Working from a statistical sampling of convicts, and writing with sympathetic insight, Dr Robson examines the convicts’ records: their social and economic background, age, religion and occupation; and individual cases’.
