Quotes:
Philip Conolly: The world is always easier understood held at a distance, with tales of monsters and the like. This is how Alexander is remembered, not as a man. Yet few truer, words have been spoken; a full belly is prerequisite to all manner of good. Without that, no man knows what hunger will make him do. more

This is the story of Alexander Pearce, an Irish Convict taken to Australia by the British.
The story is a gripping tale about survival and hunger amongst a group of convicts.
A story that will surely make one sit back and wonder if they would do the same thing given the same circumstances.
The story of Alexander Pearce will have you stuck to your seat, but at the same time, may have you running for the nearest bathroom.
A truly fascinating and well acted story.
