The Masque of Anarchy
As I lay asleep in Italy There came a voice from over the Sea And with great power it forth led me To walk in the visions of Poesy.

One of the advantages of Tasmania’s convict history is that the record keeping was the best in the world at that time. The details we can drill down on are incredible; where did the convict live, their sentencing judge, “crime”, etc.
We can also track resistance & activism.
It’s a proud history.
