Henry Savery was Australia's first novelist and a convict transported to Port Arthur, Tasmania. It is widely acknowledged that his writing is more significant for its historical value than for its literary merit. Excerpt: The events of Savery's life and the autobiographical novel he has left us to give some insight into the man. He was, so far as can be learned, not striking in appearance. All we gain from the prison record is that he was five feet eight inches in height and that he had brown hair and hazel eyes. But he was not commonplace in temperament...The picture Savery gives in Quintus Servinton is then mostly true in analysis of what he was, less true in description and narration of what he did.

Caroline Leakey, writing as Oliné Keese, published her first and only novel, The Broad Arrow, in 1859. It tells the story of Maida Gwynnham, a young middle-class woman lured into committing a forgery by her deceitful lover, Captain Norwell, and then wrongly convicted of infanticide. The novel’s title describes the arrow that was stamped onto government property, including the clothes worn by convict – a symbol of shame and incarceration. With its ‘fallen woman’ protagonist, its gothic undertones and its exploration of the social and moral implications of the penal system, this little-known novel gives an insight into a significant chapter of Australian history from a uniquely female perspective. In this new critical edition, editor Jenna Mead restores material that was cut when the novel was reissued in a radically abridged version in 1886, restoring for the first time in over a century the complete original text of Leakey’s important work.

"The romance of the station" is set in Australia and tells the story of Mrs. Ansdell and her husband, Alec. Excerpt: The undulating outlines of our Island gave promise of picturesque scenery. It was all interesting and romantic. Something was fascinating in the thought that only at the full or new moon when the tide was lowest, could man or beast swim across the Narrows to the mainland. I liked the idea of being separated from the world by that long, lonely, man-grove-fringed strait which, no broader than a river at its neck, widened out some twenty miles lower into the beautiful Gundabine harbour that had filled me with admiration as we had entered it in the coasting steamer. In calm weather the bay was blue and smiling; but when a south-east gale blew, and the waves dashed on the little islets that stood like a row of sentinels between the great island and the mainland, and the sea horses chased each other, it was no pleasant passage to make on a night in Rame's skiff or the Island boat. But I did not let myself foresee possible storms and terrors, and I would not dwell upon practical difficulties and inconveniences such as the carriage of household goods and stores, and having to send to Gundabine for our mail. Neither Alec nor I had realized these as yet.
