Description
First Edition, Leather Binding
The first edition.
An important essay on the secondary punishments on those who had been transported to Australia, addressed to Earl Grey, the Prime Minister at the time, who found himself influenced by this work.
The author here argues that transportation and the secondary punishments are ineffective at deterring criminals.
