Book Description
On 8 December 1832, the convict transport ship 'Mangles' departed from Sheerness with its cargo of 236 convicts bound for New South Wales, none of whom knew what fate had in store for them. The ages of the men and boys spanned from just 13 years-old to 54, and between them they left behind 46 wives and 133 children. Their crimes ranged from horse stealing, to counterfeiting, burglary, mugging, or just stealing apples. They had been sent from all corners of the United Kingdom, and one was even from Guyana in South America. They came from all walks of life: labourers, sailors, tradesmen, soldiers, urchins and craftsmen; and included the educated and the uneducated. Some of them would go on to carve out new lives in Australia, with new families; others would never cease fighting the 'system'; two would be sent to the gallows, whilst another two would be murdered. Others would leave the colony, either at the end of their sentences or by escaping. This book sets out to tell the stories of how each of them ended up on the 'Mangles', and what happened to them after they arrived in New South Wales.

Book Description
The world of the year 2095 that has fallen to Ricardo Hayens, better known as Rick, is very different and very similar to that of today. It is true that technology, so advanced, draws a futuristic picture that is alien to us, but this is no obstacle to our character being trapped in a chain of priorities, joys and frustrations easily recognizable in any citizen of the early twenty-first century. Rick is worried about losing his job and his status, tries to overcome the ups and downs in his relationship with the attractive Nancy and likes to share laughs and careers with his friend and work competitor Jaime Berg. Rick works in a family business dedicated to air travel, in clear decline in favor of successful transportation, which allows its users - including Rick himself and his girlfriend - to move around the planet in a fraction of a second. However, all that glitters is not gold, something that Rick will soon discover. Much to his regret, he will find himself involved in a police case in which he will have to make use of some qualities he thought were lost in order to try to recover normality. In Almost Transported, a novel that combines elements of thriller and science fiction, Lucas Mola draws a world of anticipation in which real people, with their possibilities and limitations, try to survive in an environment full of hidden dangers.

Book Description
Drawing on digital criminal records, this book traces the life courses of young convicts who were sentenced at the Old Bailey and transported to Van Diemen's Land in the early 19th century. It explores the everyday lives of the convicts pre- and post-transportation, focusing on their crimes, punishments, education, employment and family life right up to their deaths. Emma D. Watkins contextualizes these young convicts within the punishment system, economy and culture that they were thrust into by their forced movement to Australia. This allows an understanding of the factors which determined their chances of achieving a 'settled life' away from crime in the colony. Packed with case studies offering vivid accounts of the offenders' lives, Life Courses of Young Convicts Transported to Van Diemen's Land makes an important contribution to the history of transportation, social history and Australian history.
