A very scarce publication on the prison ship ‘The Success’ and a work advocating for better treatment of prisoners. ‘The Success’ was an Australian prison ship which was later converted into a floating museum at the turn of the 20th century to represent the horrors of penal transportation in Great Britain and the United States of America.
