Appartiene alle SeriePowder Monkey (2)
Sam fights in a fierce battle against the Danish Fleet, led by none other than Nelson himself, and against all odds victory is theirs. Peace is declared and Britain's war with most of Northern Europe is over. Sam can go home. But on the journey back, he witnesses a crime, for which he is framed. He is sentenced to death, but at the last minute his sentence is commuted to transportation to Australia. With petty thieves, vicious criminals, women, and other children, Sam begins an eight month journey to the other side of the world, and a life of slavery in the harsh Australian interior. He knows that against all odds, he must escape. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

What engaged me most about Powder Monkey was the attention to detail of everyday life. Not so much with Prison Ship, as Dowswell describes the way of life in the convict colonies. The tensions of class and status are much more apparent in Prison Ship though, and Sam and Richard's time in the bush is the stuff of classic adventure. ( )
