Publisher's Synopsis

Harvie that explores the history of the Convict Hulk Success, a prison ship that was used to house convicts in the early days of colonial Australia. The book provides a detailed account of the conditions on board the ship, the treatment of the prisoners, and the events that led to its eventual decommissioning. Harvie's work is based on extensive research and includes firsthand accounts from prisoners and officials who were involved with the Success.
