The Story of Lachlan and Elizabeth Macquarie’s Treatment of the Convicts as a History Tale for Today
Austin Lovegrove
Austin Lovegrove traces the story of Lachlan Macquarie, the Scottish governor of the British Colony of New South Wales from 1810 to 1821, and his wife Elizabeth. Explaining that their pioneering and compassionate attitude to convict rehabilitation was based on the belief that prisoners had been sent to Australia as punishment, not for punishment, he outlines their modus operandi, introduces their supporters and opponents, and reflects on how their approach remains valid.
