Excerpt from England's Exiles, or a View of a System of Instruction and Discipline: As Carried Into Effect During the Voyage to the Penal Colonies of Australia
It will readily be perceived that I regard sound views of the Divine Character and Government; of man's nature and relation to his Maker; and of all that is involved in that relation, as lying at the foundation of all useful instruction and efficient discipline and there fore it was that a special object contemplated in the system I was led to adopt, was the impartation to the people of scriptural perceptions of God and of them selves, and of the principles of sound and acceptable obedience.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an analysis and critique of the first voyage of a convict ship carrying prisoners from Britain to Australia. Combining insights from firsthand accounts with rigorous historical research, the author paints a vivid picture of the "systematic instruction and government" for prisoners on the voyage. They explore the origins and implementation of this system, as well as its consequences for the prisoners, which ranged from improved literacy to religious conversion. Through a detailed examination of journals and logbooks from the voyage, the author sheds light on a little-known aspect of maritime history and the emergence of modern penal systems. The author concludes that, although the system was far from perfect and ultimately unsuccessful, it represented an important turning point in the history of crime and punishment.
