There he was - John Hughes (Jac T?-isha) - a handsome young man with face blackened, clad in white nightdress and bonnet adorned with feathers. Leading hundreds of other young farmers similarly disguised, he was on a mission. After midnight under moonlight, amid a cacophony of drums, horns, gunfire and general caterwauling, they announced their presence, with John leading the way on his white horse.Well told, well researched, with a wealth of colourful detail, this book is a must for all interested in Tasmania's convict history. No Ordinary Convict is written with fluency and elegance that makes it a pleasure to read. Janine Marshall Wood's ancestor was a Rebecca, a leader of Welshmen protesting about unfair toll gate charges. Background information about the little-known Rebecca Riots is fascinating. So is the story of John Hughes and four others, transported to Van Diemen's Land. They suffered varying fates, from fair to dire: a microcosm of the convict experience. -Alison Alexander Tasmanian writer and historian Winner of the 2014 Australian National Biography Award

The latest in the "terrifically imaginative" (The Wall Street Journal) Akitada mystery series brings eleventh-century Japan to life I. J. Parker's phenomenal Akitada mystery series has been gaining fans with each new novel. The latest, The Convict's Sword, is the most fully realized installment to date, weaving history, drama, mystery, romance, and adventure into a story of passion and redemption. Lord Sugawara Akitada, the senior secretary in the Ministry of Justice, must find the mysterious killer of a man condemned to live in exile for a crime he did not commit. Meanwhile, Akitada's retainer, Tora, investigates the sudden death of a blind street singer, whose past life is a bigger mystery than anyone thought. Told in Parker's clever, vivid prose, The Convict's Sword is a must-read for those who love well-written mysteries in an exotic setting.

When the British took control of the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius soon after the abolition of the slave trade, they were faced with a labour-hungry and potentially hostile Franco-Mauritian plantocracy. This book explores the context in which Indian convicts were transported to the island and put to work building the infrastructure necessary to fuel the expansion of the sugar industry. Drawing on hitherto unexplored archival material, it is shown how convicts experienced transportation and integrated into the Mauritian social and economic fabric.
