Sent to Van Diemens Land

The Chartists were a working class movement for political reforms which existed in Britain from around 1830 to 1860. During this time there were many riots because of working conditions and some were caused by the incitement of visiting Chartists.

In Stoke on Trent, many rioters were caught and sent to prison while some were sentenced to transportation. This book is about those men and their lives before and after.
