In 1839 fifty-eight men left Montreal for the penal colony of New South Wales. They were ordinary people who had been caught up in the political whirlwind of the 1838 rebellion. Even though they were all civilians, they had been tried by court martial. Convicted of treason, their properties forfeited to the crown, they paid a heavy price for rebellion. And as convicts in Australia, they were considered the lowest of a bad lot. During their years there, however, they earned the respect of SydneyÕs citizens. The book was written by Beverley Boissery, a historian and author, and published by Allen & Unwin in 1996. It has 367 pages. Ex-library -Monash Public Library - withdrawn stamp on title page.
