When Ginger is transported to a penal colony in Van Diemen’s land for a minor offence committed in Scotland, he has to endure tremendous cruelty and hardship.
What would break the spirit of many a man, however, only hardens Ginger’s determination to escape from the hell he is living in. A bitter resolve to get revenge on his enemy, Fraser, keeps him going, while he schemes to flee to the mainland.
Irene Lebeter's GINGER is an enthralling historical novel; a rags-to-riches tale of life, love and fortitude set in mid-19th century Australia.
