From the Booker Prize-winning author of Schindlers List comes a gripping historical account of Australias founding. In A Commonwealth of Thieves, Thomas Keneally vividly recounts the journey of the First Fleet in 1788, when Britain sent hundreds of convicts, marines, and officials to colonize what would become modern-day Australia.
Blending meticulous research with Keneallys signature storytelling, this narrative unveils the harsh realities, ambitions, and absurdities that shaped a nation born of punishment and perseverance. With unforgettable characters and powerful insight, this book brings colonial history to life in a way few authors can.
