In 1840, Alexander Maconochie, a retired naval captain, became superintendent of two thousand twice-convicted prisoners on Norfolk Island, a thousand miles off the coast of Australia. He transformed the brutal convict settlements into a controlled, stable, and productive environment. This book offers an account of this pioneer in penal reform.
