Calcutta in 1803. These convicts with a military and civil establishment, free settlers and numerous families, arrived at Port Phillip to extend Britain's interests in New Holland. They moved to the Derwent, then began the settlement which became Hobart. This book is a unique work which took the author 35 years of research. Marjorie has chosen a significant moment relatively ignored in Australian history in order to follow the vicissitudes of those First Fleeters of Port Phillip and Van Diemen’s Land.

As social history, it shows much about the interchanges between felon and free, male and female, in early Australian colonial days. The work also includes meticulous biographies of every Calcutta convict, with many surnames of the thousands of descendants - an amazing piece of genealogical research into the families of Australia.
