Find out what convicts were entitled to be rationed for food at the Port Arthur Historic Site, which could be dependant on the type of labour or disciplinary action taken against you. This book also includes 150 practical recipes exemplifying the times, plus historical photographs, convict rules and rations and the unabridged story of ex-convict Bessie Baldwin.
