From the award-winning author of The A-Z of Convicts in Van Diemen's Land comes an utterly original work of Australian history, examining and illustrating the tattoos of convict men and women.
At least thirty-seven per cent of male convicts and fifteen per cent of female convicts were tattooed by the time they arrived in the penal colonies, making Australians quite possibly the world's most heavily tattooed English-speaking people of the nineteenth century.
